SuperDrive just stopped working
iMac 1.25 GHz PowerPC G4 Mac OS X (10.4.3)
Cancel that order!
A dual layer 16x DVD±RW Superdrive new costs $40! Here are the instructions to fit the optical drive.
Remember to take anti-static precautions when you're inside your iMac and when you close up the bottom case you must restore the thermal paste. All instructions for this are above.
For $200 I'd expect a Firewire External drive with a software package (i.e. Toast 7 ) - all you need in this case is a barebones drive.
If you don't have OS 10.4 you'll probably need the Patchburn driver (click More Info for the 10.2 and 10.3 versions) to allow your drive to work.

That drive should work fine as I see you do have 10.4.4.
