make sure that you buying it with same connection type (ata or sata)

or you can try something like that http://cgi.ebay.ie/External-USB-2-0-DVD-CD-Writer-for-Laptops-Advent-New_W0QQitemZ250573699382QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Computing_LaptopAccessories_LaptopDrives?hash=item3a575b3936

may be a better option as it can be connected to any laptop or pc (but it is another thing in your bag... )
