hopefully it can fit the two dell drives and the 2 digital raptor hds, I dont think my dad would be too keen on helping me purchase new cd drives and my budget is certainly wiped clean by now

I'm pretty sure it will work... I've never had a Dell it should be the same connectors for optical drives.

in case you're wondering, most of dells stuff comes from lg, samsung, nec, etc.. motherboard used to be made by asus and now msi, graphics cards are also msi now. they just slap on a label.
