Internal IDE DVD Writer for Legacy Builds

The Pioneer DVR-111DBK is a new internal optical drive that writes DVD±R at 16x and CD-R at 40x. It fits a standard 5.25 inch half-height bay and connects through an IDE Ultra ATA/66 interface. The black bezel matches classic chassis aesthetics.

Suits Restorations Needing IDE Optical Media

This drive suits restorations that need an IDE optical device for reading or writing DVD and CD media. It does not suit builds that lack a 5.25 inch half-height bay or systems without an IDE connector. Buyers who need Blu-ray support should look elsewhere.

IDE Ultra ATA/66 Interface Decides Compatibility

The single specification that decides fitment is the IDE Ultra ATA/66 interface. Motherboards must provide a matching IDE header and the case must accept a 5.25 inch half-height unit measuring 1.7 by 5.8 by 7.1 inches. Without that interface the drive cannot be installed.
