Laptop Upgrade

[Mizzle54]

I recently purchased a Dell Latitude C640 that came with a CD rom drive. How hard would it be to upgrade the CD to a CD/DVD drive? Thanks, Mizzle.

You can get it from a few different places after Googling that part # that is in here. I just linked these so you can see the drive and part numbers. I haven't used these stores.

If you don't need a CD burner just a reader, this one is cheaper.

I appreciate the sites for purchasing, but I needed to know how difficult it would be to change. Thanks.

Those look like quick change drives. Should be a button or latch next to the drive or on the bottom of the case by the drive bay to release the drive.

Ahh, yeah sorry. BY how hard, I thought you meant how hard to find the right one. Like Flanzig1 said, there should be a button or latch (sometimes with a lock icon) press that, pull out the old one, and slide in the new. Good luck. :D
