Are the connections compatible? (SATA or IDE)
Does it work?
Does the color match?

It uses ide which has been obsolete for nearly a decade so you won't find it on any modern mobo. Dvd drives are cheap, usually found around $15 so isn't a big deal but you could go with no optical drive. I haven't had one for 5+ years, everything can be obtained through digital distribution or usb. Or even go with a usb dvd drive for the same price.
