Yes there is. I got mine from MTU and it is in the laptop I bought from MTU! Don't know the model number off hand but it is a Plextor of course.

I have heard that a tech that knows what they are doing can remove an IDE drive from it's case and install it in a laptop.

Dunno, just what I heard.

All I know guys is that my laptop from MTU (2002 ?)came with a DVD drive. And of course it would not play CDG's. I then called MTU and ordered a Plextor drive to go in it's place. I had no trouble putting it in. And I can asure you I'm no "Techy"

I would suggest contacting MTU and even ask them to check my records so they know what model and type they sent me. The laptop by the way is a Prostar.

bobcox,

Had a chance at lunch to check my drive. My systems device manager shows it to be a Plextor CD-R PX-S88T. Hope this helps.
