I have iLife 09 and iWork 09 currently running on my eMac USB 2.0. I only have a combo drive but want to expand and burn DVD'S through iDVD. Where do I find a superdrive compatible with this computer?
eMac-OTHER, Mac OS X (10.5.8)
This link below has a suitable DVD burner ( a superdrive) that will fit your mid to late model eMac.

The DVD drives are not difficult to fit, sitting as they do at the bottom of the machine. The trickiest bit is the fine plug that fits onto the on/off switch on the case.

Pay attention to that fact when looking for take-apart guides. The older USB 1.1 eMac versions seem to be most of the guides I've found online, but the power switch issue isn't as serious with those as the USB 2.0 models.
