I have a bunch of these boards from original Xbox DVD drives. They have a proprietary power connector but the standard 40 pin IDE hookup. Does anyone know what these would be classified as?

Thanks!

Anything CD/DVD drive related, and especially having its own drive or box; is a CD/DVD board 100%.

Gotta be careful with the compact drives, have an example here if one that didn't make cd/DVD board:

With the varied level of experience of different people I wanted to make sure to point out an exception to any cd/DVD board goes as such.

Facts.
I take my knowledge for granted sometimes and forget I knew nothing at one point too, haha.

I began in this field as a computer science major and acute sense in metal scrapping; still had trouble with everything , HA
