I picked up an RX2620 recently. It came without an
internal slimline DVD
drive. I believe it is IDE, but I don't know if the connector is standard
(it doesn't match a connector on a laptop DVD drive I found). I have not
been able to find any parts info for this machine.
What should I be looking for to get a slimline DVD drive for my RX2620?
It's the same drive that HP use in all of their servers and older laptops.
If you have a G3+ generation Proliant kicking around with a slimline DVD
it's that one. That box is the Itanium equivalent of the RP3400 series
PA-RISC boxes. DVD part number is A9919B. I suspect we have a load of them
at work.
