Will this drive support mini (3") cd roms?

Would like to answer your question, but I don't even know what a (3") cd rom is. Just an old guy that wanted to take GoPro video and put it on a disk to watch on a TV, but it didn't even come close to being able to do that, it DID unfortunately manage to erase my underwater diving video though....not good.

This is a tray-based drive, so it should read any optical disc type. It reads mini CDs, I know that much.

No. The drives that go into Mac minis, the recent ones anyway, are 9mm. These drives are almost twice that, at 15mm. I think they may have been designed for custom enclosures or something, because they are much too thick for standard 2.5" drive applications.

There are three ports. Mini, small, and full size usb. Will none of them work?

Mini cd disk with drivers for windows and Linux. Works on my old Compaq with Linux.

Steve, that sounds like a standard 3.5" Form Factor akin to the Seagate ST500NM0001, whose dimensions are 5.78x4.010x1.028 then it should work just fine. If you can find the model number on the drive, it would make it easier to check for sure.

3.5" drives, but can't say how useful it will be, haven't had a chance to try it yet.

From what I can tell, it will not. It looks as if you'll need a 12.7 mm hard drive caddy.

It's very skinny about the size of the CD ROM in a computer. That's why they break and need to be replaced. No I do not think so.

This is a standard sized drive, same size as other desktop cd/dvd drives. If you are replacing an existing cd/dvd, it should fit without any problems.

I have used mine strictly for CD and DVD labeling. The enclosed product directions make no mention of mini disc labeling.

No. This product requires the source drive to be smaller than the destination. There is a high chance of failure if you would try using a smaller destination since the product is not designed to pull certain partitions or sectors on the disk.

It should, that is a small drive. Is it an IDE drive? If it is, yes it would work.

It will, but it'll be a tight fit and you couldn't put in a disc drive. Plan carefully.

If it has a USB port.....It will work like a thumb drive does......You don't need 3.0 USB.....It's a bit slower with a 2.0 naturally.....

As long as it is 5.25 inch, yes you can. You can install up to 3 of those drives. You can also install your OS using a USB drive.

Yes it will work, with the usual caveat regarding adequate cooling. These minis might not adequately cool a 7200RPM disk drive.
