Assembly 24X CDRW/DVD Combo Drive

I would like to replace the CD drive on my D600 Latitude laptop. Searching compatible drives for my

D600 laptop, the search lists a replacement drive, "Assembly 24X CDRW/DVD Combo Drive". The spec sheet lists a long list of codes which leads me to believe that I would be shipped a number of parts that I would have to build a drive from. What does the term "assembly" mean?

Dell does not sell unassembled optical drives.  The word
assembly usually refers to complete units.  If you could
supply a link to that unit, we may be able to verify.

My apologies. The abover post is not correct in that it is only for a CD drive and not a combo CD/DVD drive. Apparently they are not longer available?? If so, my questions are a moot point.

Thank you for the directions. The URL I was looking at is:

Does that help?

The link you have supplied may have been good enough for me to
understand the original one you saw.  It is a kit.  The drive is
assembled but includes additional parts required for installation;
these parts are listed separately as 'Component Parts' in the
Highlights section of the page. Thus, the parts that come as part
of the kit may or may not be used depending on your system and

are included as a convenience.
