LMAO yet again... my local WalMart still has 4x burners for well over $100, and people keep buying them at those prices!

Cendyne was a bit tough to open but i did get in a dvd +r, but the alignment on the ide cable and dvd drive pinout is off a bit so had hard time getting the drive all the way in. There is a metal clip on the ide cable that keeps it from being flush.
NOW I HAVE A EXTERNAL DVD+R FOR $80 ($50 dvd+R and $30 for the external case + a internal liteon 52x cdrw)
I got the side strips and the top off the iomagic and will try to get the drive out and switch the ide cables. There is half inch room to accomadate the cendyne ide cable.
The drive screws are under the labels
Update: I swapped drive in the Iomagic and it works
NOW I HAVE A EXTERNAL DVD+R FOR $70 ($50 dvd+R and $20 for the external case + a internal Benq 48x cdrw)
Its so beautiful. I am chokin.... up.....

I noticed some differences in the packaging on the USB2 I/O magic drives. One is shrink wrapped and has a Nero logo on the front. Another is missing the shrink wrap and the Nero logo but has a white plastic carrying handle on the top of the box. The last has no shrink wrap, Nero logo or plastic handle.
No serial number on the outside of the box on any of them.
I bought them all ( 4 total) because for $19 they are too good to pass up. They were still marked with a clearence price of $99 on the shelf but rang up at $19. I plan on giving them to friends and family and will keep one for myself.
Does anyone have a clue as to which manufacture drive is inside based on these packaging differences? If not I guess I will tear them all apart and report back tonight when I get home.
FWIW my OM (in Utah) also had several internal I/O magic drives for $19 but I left them all for someone else.
Big thanks to Bad_Dude for the deal. Im stocked up on burners and enclosures for awhile now.

My Cendyne was a rebadged Asus that I got a few months ago.
Took forever to detect if there was a CD in the drive during boot-up. No delays once detected.
No coasters burning though. but for $20, not bad.
