Hello,

Sorry for the noob question, but I’m looking to replace my old DVD Drive (IDE), and I was wondering if the newer SATA Drives like the LG GH24NSB0 is compatible with my mother board:- Gigabyte GA-880GM-UD2H.

Although my MB has a SATA II port, and my SMPS a SATA power connector, I’m still not sure if the LG drive will work with my system.

Thank You!

Yes, it will work. Use the sata port.
