I have just got a late 2005 Power Mac G5 all that is missing is the DVD drive
Can i put any SATA DVD in or does it need a Apple only Superdrive.

I got it for £50 in very good condition.

Thanks

Here is an example of what you need:

LG iHAP222-06 Lite-On Internal DVD/CD... in stock at OWC

Find something like this from a local retailer (or e-Bay)...and you're good to go. In this case you do not need an "Apple Only" superdrive.
