I purchased the motherboard above & while installing everything and plugging in, i ended up not having the needed slot on the motherboard for my DVD/CD drive. This motherboard doesn't seem to have the IDE connector. Is there any other way i could connect it?

You can purchase an IDE to SATA adapter, or pick up a new DVD-RW, I find the adapters to be inconsistent though and highly suggest a cheap SATA drive.

Agree^ I would just pick up a SATA DVD-RW they do not cost that much anymore. And unless you can find a adapter locally by the time you and shipping/tax and such the price could come so close as to not make the adapter worth it.
