Tech advice wanted: Putting internal Superdrive in a case



I have recently been employed in the Product Returns Dept. of
MicroAGe Computers here in Tulsa. As such, I have access to 
all the goodies that customers return that the vendors won't
take back. Some of the stuf is in brand new condition but the 
vendors are anal-retentive about what they will take back.

There is an internal Superdrive sitting on our clearance 
center shelf and I would like to buy it and mount it in my 3.5"
drive case (the 3.5 drive is dead). Is this possible
without having an degree in Electrical Engineering and without
ripping up the case?

On a similar note, there are a ton of internal hard drives that
have been orphaned. I would love to put together a rack system 
with four or five of them linked in a SCSI chain. Any one have any
suggestions on how to go about something like this? (IE what sort
of power supply and such would I need)

One final question: Has anyone writen a driver for any of the
650Meg floptical drives out there yet? I have about 200Meg of
GIF images that I would love to archive on one of those things.
