need ide port for my lightscribe drive, will pci card work?

[pyrfan]

Hi, am trying to hook up a lightscribe drive, and don't have any open IDE ports, any suggestions? Can I get a pci card that will handle an IDE ribbon for a dvd drive?

Yes, why not ?

thanks. I wasn't sure and didn't want to spend the money and have it not recognized.

You just have to make sure that you have 1 free PCI slot.

A few of them are rather old and have limited support. Spend a few bucks and get a nicer version.
