external drive caddy
is the Dell 023MRD external drive caddy compatible with the latitude cpx? is there any external connector that will work with cd-rw, dvd-rw, or hdd modules for the cpx?
i am not asking about the floppy cable which will not work for the other drives.

thank you for your reply although i am not sure i understand what you are saying.
when you speak of the usb connector, are you talking about using external usb drives?
i am asking about the exchangable modules you can buy for the cpx that can be slid into the laptop or used in the dock.
for instance, i can have my floppy, my dvd-rw, and an extra hdd module attached all at the same time (i rarely do, but its nice to be able to.)
what i want to know is if there is a cable that i can use for the other drives/modules. i see lots of external drive cables for sale that include an external drive caddy. they are always listed for other dell laptops, some of which show up on my list as using the same parts as the cpx. (again, for instance, i recently purchased a hdd module that was listed for a "cp". referring to my list of comparable parts, i figured that it would work with the cpx, and it does!)
