    I would like to add a Cd Drive to my system. I have Dell Dimension and the add-on cd drive is out of Dell 4600. I assume they should be compatible. Aside from driver's and such what do I have to do to install it? I would like to think that it is as simple as plugging it in, but there is always some thing more to these things. Any help appreciated.

    Very easy, you plug the ide cable into the drive, plug in the molex conector, and set the drive to cable select, and turn it on in the bios.
