Are the CD Drives SATA? How about copying them from another PC to a USB drive?

Hi Scott, I have put the hard drive on to the primary ide and connected the cd rom drive to the raid ide, on boot up it sees the cd drive but when windows comes up it doesnt. The idea of using a usb drive is one I had not thought of , I will give it a go tomorrow, thank you very much for that
