Well I think its called a caddy, and you put your internal dvd drive inside and it goes trough usb. Although there may be another way. Are you sure you don't have another connection? Must motherboards have tons.

You're saying that you got the samsung pc drive but your pc only has one bay so you can't install this new drive into your pc?

If so then you can get away with this:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16812119017

It's an adapter which will allow you to run an ide through usb. I use one for odd-ball work and it works great. It's not a pretty setup but it works.

Or you could buy an external case for the drive, but that's more $$$. If you're gonna do that you might as well buy a new pc case for a few bucks more.
