Hello

So I was building my Mom's new computer and was putting in the DVD writer, but the board didn't have a connection for IDE only Sata. So I am asking what would be the best way to go. A converter or just go out and get a new DVD writer. How reliable are the converters and if going for a DVD Write I looking for one under 30 dollars, she writes a lot so like to have a good one so let me know what is the best one to get around that range and to let me know what would be better a new writer or converter. Also the motherboard I have is a Gigabyte GA-A75M-UD2H. Anything else you think I might have a issue with this board or any other accessories I might need please let me know. Thanks

Dale
