Looking for a Slim IDE cd drive.

[lauri.lotvonen]

So as the title suggests, I'm looking for a slim cd-drive with a 40 Pin IDE connector. If someone here has installed one succesfully to a1200, please point out what drive you are using. And the reason for this post is that I could not find any Slim ones with IDE 40 pin connector, only ones with SATA etc...

I think I have one in the loft.  It's certainly slim line and is external (in a housing).  I used to use it with my A1200 with the IDE cable trailing outside the case (think I used Allegro CD).  Sure I bought it originally from Amikit or somewhere.  Not sure I have the power supply adapter for it though.  If it's of interest to you drop me a note and I will take photo's etc.

Cheers

John

Thanks to everyone for being so helpful. I'm bit in between should I get a internal or external drive as the external should be more easy to install.

I have to get the buffered IDE interface from amigakit and a cable to connect the CF hard drive that I have and cable/adapter to get the cd-drive connected aswell.
Would this drive do the trick with the adapter suggested:
