Hmmm one option would be to buy an external 5.25 USB2.0 enclosure.

Also, they should have SATA to IDE converters but check the customer reviews and make sure CD/DVD drives are supported.

And the last simple option I can think of is buy an PCI, or PCI-X IDE controller board. Plug right into your mobo and connect the drives that way.

Newegg.com is the only place you need to look. :D In the uppper-left hand corner, click on the category list. External enclosures are with the hard-drives column.
