    As the title states, I am in need of a smart card reader for a MK 1 CF-54 (CF-54C9791TM). This is NEEDED for my job with the DOD. I am open to swapping my bottom cover for yours if necessary.

    Also looking for a DVD drive for the same. Not really needed but desired.

    I just got a new DVD drive off ebay for $19.80 so I am now set for that.
    I am still in need of a smart card reader for this Cf-54.
