Hi I'm looking to purchase a Cd drive for my A1200.
I know it can be connected via the pcmcia slot but can it be connected to another port on the a1200?

I remember some audio issues with cd drives via pcmcia? Is this an issue? Audio cables etc.

I'm not seeing many options at amiga stores. Amigakit have this one but its out of stock, but will it work on my a1200?

Vesalia have this one http://www.vesalia.de/e_amigaslimcddrive.htm

But it seems that i need to connect it internally. i don't want to open my a1200 again. i have a cf gaming card and an 030 accelerator in it anyhow.

What is the best option? Anyone know where i can get a somewhat inexpensive external cd drive for my a1200?

I just ordered a new psu as i dont trust my old one anymore.
