DVD Drive replacement
So my Dell Inspiron 7520 dvd drive failed about two months after the laptop's warranty ended :emotion-6: and i can't find anywhere where I could get a replacement from the internet that isn't from eBay. So has anyone got any ideas where I could get one from?

It's just a standard SATA DVD drive -- slimline, notebook format.

Hi The_Quacken,
Welcome to Dell Community Forum.
Did you get any error message or run the diagnostics to confirm that the optical drive has failed? Sometimes updating the optical drive firmware or running the Microsoft Fix-It CD/DVD troubleshooter helps resolve issues with optical drives.
