A while back as I had built a new computer, the old one was dismantaled completely. I still have most of the parts. This cd drive works off old IDE tecnoligy. Lets take a look inside. sory for the quality of photos.
the front of the drive |
The back of the drive with the IDE and Molex power conetors |
The botom of the drive, only 4 scrues and the howl thing lifts off |
the top of the drive with a fansy worning and info sticker |
As the bottem cover was lifted off, i saw this chip with metale exposed. It was heat sinked to the cover on the drive thrue a pese of thermale pading material |
The mane controle bord of the drive. |
A full over vew of the drive |
the back of the mane controle bord, it had thias very nice micro conetors and ribben cables ataching it to the rest of the divice. |
and finaly this is the moveing lazer head that both berns and reads the discks. If i had more time i wold have powerd it up with the cover off but i didnt. |
This is a very old drive and dispist serching the web for a wile I codnt fine alot of the individual ICs.
George out.
