NONE OF THESE 16 DRIVES HAVE BEEN TESTED.
The drives have not been connected to computers or checked for disc reading, writing, tray/eject operation, motors, lasers, electronics or other functions.
Individual operating condition is therefore unknown.
The drives vary considerably in age and cosmetic condition.
Expect signs of previous installation, removal and long-term storage including scratches, scuffs, dust, dirt, discoloration, label wear, oxidation and surface rust/corrosion on some metal housings.
Please review the photographs for the physical condition and manufacturer labels of the individual drives.
This is not simply a lot of modern replacement DVD drives.
Several units date to the late 1990s and early 2000s and use the older IDE/PATA interface, making them potentially useful for period-correct vintage and retro computer systems.
The lot would be suitable for:
• Vintage PC restoration
• Retro computer builds
• IDE/PATA replacement hardware
• Computer repair shops
• Electronics technicians
• Testing and refurbishment
• Parts inventory
• Electronics projects
• Resale inventory
The lot contains multiple generations of optical-drive technology including CD-ROM, CD-RW, DVD-ROM and recordable/rewritable DVD hardware.
Interfaces and capabilities vary between drives. Buyers should verify individual model numbers and compatibility for their intended application.
16 full-size internal desktop optical drives exactly as photographed.
No IDE cables, SATA cables, power cables, audio cables, mounting screws, software, driver discs, manuals or other accessories are included.
ALL 16 DRIVES ARE BEING SOLD TOGETHER AS ONE LOT.
