adding a dvd-rom

[nothing]

I have a cd-rw drive and a cd-rom drive in my computer. I would like to add a dvd-rom drive also but I don't know how I will do that because I can only connect two drives to the cable. I was thinking that there might be some sort of ad-on card for this kind of problem. Help please.

Since your DVD drive will act as a CD-ROM as well, there's no point having three drives, you only need the CD-RW and DVD. :)

Yea... trash the Cd-Rom drive, your DVD drive will run smoother and quieter as well (in my experience anyway)

I agree. But if you absolutely have to have three drives, you can put the CD-ROM drive as slave to the Harddrive. If it is an ancient CD-ROM drive (PIO Mode only), then it would not be an ideal situation.

unless you have two hard drives, then get a controller card.
