External DVD rom drive???

[freekevin7]

I am looking into getting a toshiba e750, which would be my first pocket pc.
Does anyone know if it is possible to use an external DVD drive with a pocket pc operating system? I understand there is an expansion pack that can be attached to ad a USB port and projector plug in. I really like the Targus slim exteranl DVD rom, but it looks like it takes two USB ports.
Any insight on whether there is a specific DVD rom drive that will work or if there is an expansion kit that has more than one USB inlet.
I am clue less.
Thanks
Kevin

Hi, freekevin7, welcome to PPCT!

I'm afraid what you're asking for is not possible (unless you want to write the driver yourself ;)). The USB host function can only handle mass storage devices using FAT/FAT16/FAT32 formats, not CDFS or NTFS. That basically rules out the use of CD/DVD drives.

although there is not real way to do this, i will try it out on my e750, but if u r going to carry around a dvd drve, why not just get a usb drive. smaller, more room for data, no other things to carry, dvds would be needed. its just more simplier/cheaper.
