Bob, The Mitsumi CD-Rom (Model FX4821T!A, according to my system Device Manager) has plastic tab that will allow a CD to work with the unit sitting sideways. I have several systems that work like this in the College I work for.

These drives must be mounted in the front of the box sideways. The drives I intended to use will not run in this configuration, erroring out unless I tip the case on the side. This is not acceptable. My question: Is anyone aware of an IDE drive that will operate when turned on the side?
