Internal IDE DVD writer for legacy systems

The Lite-On DH-20A4P is a new internal DVD writer with an IDE interface and a black 5.25-inch half-height bezel. It writes DVD±R at 20x, DVD±RW at 8x and double-layer media at 8x, while CD-R reaches 48x and CD-RW 32x. The drive fits a standard 5.25-inch bay measuring 1.6 by 5.7 by 6.7 inches and weighs 1.98 lb.

Suits owners of older desktops with IDE ports

This unit is intended for machines that still offer a native IDE connector and a 5.25-inch half-height bay. Builders whose motherboards lack an IDE header or who need a slimmer slot-load form factor will not be able to install it. The package contains only the drive itself, so separate mounting hardware or cables are required if the chassis does not supply them.

IDE interface dictates compatibility

The single specification that decides fitment is the IDE interface; the drive communicates solely over this legacy parallel ATA connection. Without an available IDE channel on the host system the burner cannot function, regardless of bay dimensions or power supply.

Questions about this item

How does the 20x DVD write speed hold up in an actual build?

The drive writes single-layer DVD±R at 20x and dual-layer DVD±R DL at 8x, so real-world burns run at those rated speeds when the media supports them.

What does the IDE interface limit in practice?

The IDE connection uses the standard 40-pin ATA interface, so the drive works with any motherboard or controller that provides an IDE channel.

What bay and clearance does this unit need to fit?

It mounts in a 5.25-inch half-height bay and measures 1.6 inches high, 5.7 inches wide and 6.7 inches deep.
