    Would it be possible to stack two of these in a standard optical drive bay? What kind of IDE cable would be used? It isn't a typical desk top interface is it?

    No, it wouldnt be possible. They use a special small cable. I doubt you could find the adapters to make it work.

    You guys are thinking laptop hard drive connections. DVD drives aren't 44-pin.

    Good price for a combo BDROM/DVD+RW slim drive.

    Yes it is, but it is IDE. Might be nice in a nice little enclosure.

    Why would you want two of them stacked? And why are we stuck at 8X burn speed for slim drives?
