I have rosewill (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16816132006)
PCI to SATA adapter and I'd like to use this card with a blu ray burner with sata interface.
However, I'm not sure if optical drives can be used with pci->sata adapter cards.
Can anyone please confirm or deny this. My machine doesn't have an onboard sata connectors.

thanks

I think a more straightforward solution to your lack of onboard SATA is a SATA-IDE adapter: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6822998001
