Slot DVD-ROM Drive for PowerBook G4 for $50

Hey guys I found this while browsing around:

Slot load DVD-ROM drive for Apple Powerbook G4
It's a refurbished model, with 90 days warranty, it's $59.99 an if you use coupon code DVP4 you get $10 discount. The coupon is stackable, you can buy 2 or more and get $10 off on each one of them

Does anyone now what kind of adapter you need with one of these?

BTW I don't work for them, in case anybody is wondering. Just thought this was a good deal

I am pretty sure it is just a DVDROM. As for adaptors, this thread should haeve what you are lookking for http://www.mp3car.com/vbulletin/general-hardware-discussion/12362-where-find-correct-laptop-cdr-dvd-desktop-ide-adapters.html .

Not making a specific hit at you blackaccrd00, but I've seen that thread linked to just about every other adaptor thread out there even though it is almost 1.5yrs old and most of the links in it are dead.

I know I'm not the only one whose gone through that thread and left scratching my head.

Oops, maybe I should have tested it before posting lol. Try this maybe this will work out better http://www.welovemacs.com/9224027.html . Not sure what or if it works with this drive.
