I recently bought from zipzoomfly a "House Brand Ultra Slim USB 2.0 External Enclosure for Optical Drives" https://www.zipzoomfly.com/jsp/ProductD ... ode=213500 for my X61 Tablet and very very happy with it.
I loaded it with Panasonic UJ-85J also from zipzoomfly, and they work perfectly with X61 tablet. I can also boot from it.
the beauty with this enclosure is that it has a li-ion battery built in so. It charges itself from USB port when it is not in read/write, and suppliments the power from USB port during read/write. so you never need ac adapter, even if your DVD writer requires more than 500mA power USB port can provide.
it says it supports read for 8 hours and write for 2 hours through the battery. it even has an audio out port.
the building quality is very good, and looks very nice.
