Could someone find me a DVD Drive to USB adapter so I can remove the bays from my case for better cooling?

I know slightly what to look for and don't want to get one that doesn't work :P

You could just get an external dvd drive: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Samsung-Slim-DVD-Writer-Glossy/dp/B00MAG2HFS/ref=sr_1_74?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1419397602&sr=1-74&keywords=external+usb+dvd+drive

 

This belongs in the Peripherals section. I'm moving the thread.

Wasn't sure where it went.

Because I don't want an external drive, I want my drive.
