I pulled a generic LiteOn DVD-RW drive and made it a USB drive with a
USB 2.0 adaptor like this one:
Rosewill RCW-608 USB2.0 Adapter For IDE/SATA Device

I use it to quickly connect older drives, etc. I have used it with
eeePc 701, eeeBox -linux, and Acer Aspire One - linux
We also have this cool brown one from LaCie in the office that works.
I did have some boot issues with CentOS on an HP Vectra desktop. I
suspect the older BIOS on the Vectra though.
