    Hi,

    what do you want? An optical drive or an external hard disk?
    Shops that sell computers and accessories should be good enough to start with.
    It depends on what you want. It also depends on where you live (taxes!), and what purchase options are available in your country.

    Just in case you are looking for an external optical drive (bLUrAY, DVD, CD), stay clear from those external slim thingys without separate power supply.
