Internal DVD/CD Rewriter

The DELL DH-16AAS is an internal SATA drive that reads and writes CD and DVD media including dual-layer discs. It suits users who still archive data to optical discs or need to install software from physical media. The 2 MB buffer helps sustain write operations. This drive does not support Blu-ray formats.

Check SATA Port and Bay Space

Verify that your motherboard has a free SATA data connector and that your power supply provides a SATA power plug. The unit fits a standard 5.25-inch internal bay so confirm the chassis has an available slot and mounting screws. No extra drivers are required for modern operating systems.

OEM Drive Without Extras

The drive ships as a bare unit without cables, mounting rails, faceplate or burning software. You must supply a SATA data cable and a SATA power lead from your existing parts. Any third-party disc-authoring application will work for creating CDs or DVDs.

Questions about this item

Does the DH-16AAS come with cables, mounting screws or software, or must I buy them separately?

The drive is an internal SATA unit; cables, screws and any software are not included and must be sourced separately.

Should I choose this SATA model over an older IDE version for a modern desktop?

This DH-16AAS uses a SATA interface, which matches current motherboards; an IDE version would need an adapter or legacy port.

What do the 16X DVD and 48X CD read speeds mean for actual disc access?

The drive reads DVDs at up to 16X and CDs at up to 48X, with random access times of 180 ms for DVD and 140 ms for CD.
