Hello, my PC just broke down, and I would like to salvage the still-working drive/burner to connect it externally to a laptop. I have no idea if this kind of operation is feasible, but one can always dream, right? Thanks in advance

Configuration: Windows 7 / Firefox 15.0.1

All you need is an IDE/USB or SATA/USB interface card (depending on the connector of the burner).
This kind of thing is usually for hard drives, but it works for burners too.
