I was scavenging through my basement to find an old computer that my father built during 2004. I have plans to build my computer this July once I get all my stuff at the lowest price possible during this time of season. My father's computer had two 5.25" optical drives which I think should work on the new computer, but I want to know if I should reuse those or buy a new one for 10-20$?
My build is here
