The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022.

    Just use an external ODD. It'll be much easier to find and cheaper too, not to mention more convenient.

    Well using an external ODD is a lot more convenient than having to shut off the computer to swap out the bay every time. And you can have SLI and an ODD at the same time.
