Found this old DVD driver in the garage that looks like it was from a laptop. I’d like to use it, but I don’t know what port is that.

I thought it was SATA, but it’s a little bit more taller and narrow, maybe an old revision? Or is it HP proprietary?

Any help is appreciated!

I love these, far more useful than an optical drive. The only difference between them will be the bezel, which varies to fit different laptops' shapes. They are completely passive; no components except maybe a capacitor to prevent a power surge when hot-swapping.
