Converting old external CD burner
I had an old Iomega external CD burner whose motor stopped working. I
took it apart and tried to plug an INTERNAL DVD burner to the rear board of the old Iomega (assuming that was the board that made it capable of being external). It didn't work. Any ideas? I did switch the DVD burner to the master jumper. |

In article , says... I had an old Iomega external CD burner whose motor stopped working.

I did switch the DVD burner to the master jumper. just the size matters ? no ! there were proprietary ( folkert , where are you ? ) drives which have the same plug , but neither ide nor eide and really not atapi compatible . there is absolutely no difference between internal and external . both need data and power . Geez Wolfgang, there really is no end to your stupidity, is there. |

Board deceased as well? PowerSupply dead? I did switch the DVD burner to the master jumper. Why? |
