DVD drive for a Dell Latitude

[steve7713]

I have been looking for a DVD RW to use with my Dell C610 laptop, I would prefer to have an internal like the following.

I have been unable to find out if this would fit into the CD bay of my laptop, has anyone tried this?

From what I can work out there are two shapes for the slimline drives. Sony, dell and virtually everyone else uses one and HP, IBM (lervano) and a few others use the other type.

I have a NEC drive in my dell laptop, needed to swap the casing over. They only problem is the bezel does not fit but the drive works fine.
