Why would you want to ruin a machine by doing that?

Fitting an internal CD drive will be pretty tricky. However, it has been done before, so it is possible:

Why not just use an external SCSI CD drive?That way you won't have to hack up the case and all, and it'll be way easier.

i could do that but where is the challance in that ? and it means an extra piece of hardware loitering around while it can all go in the same box
