External optical drive case

[paulpmp4]

Does anyone know if it is possible to buy an empty case that will take my old DVD rewriter. I am now running a Mac Mini with win XP(via Bootcamp) and I want to be able to use my old drive from my PC.

Yes they exist, just google for a 5 1/4" Drive Case

Definatly available. I have a few of them in use here. The ones I use can take either optical drives or hard drives since it has a blanking plate supplied with it.

 

I suspect they're all like that.
