    Does dell offer a Slot load DVD+/-RW burner for the e1705?

    Or is there one I can buy elsewhere that is compatible for the e1705?

    Currently i have the DVD+/-RW, 8X, PHILIPS, SULLIVAN/TOBAGO. It is ridiculously loud. Also it feels as if everytime I'm putting a disc in, it is about to snap in half.

    Dell does not offer a slot load for that model. the only model that has a slot load is the xps m1330. You should be able to find one after market but I doubt it will be easy since they are not very popular.
