Applications
The LG CRD-8400B was a mainstream 40x IDE CD-ROM drive from the late 1990s, sold into IBM desktop systems as an OEM part. IDE/ATAPI CD-ROM drives of this generation were standard equipment in IBM Aptiva, NetVista, and similar consumer and business desktop towers of that era. Today this type of drive is primarily sought for legacy system restoration, vintage PC builds, and machines that specifically require a 5.25" IDE optical drive — including older workstations and industrial systems that still rely on IDE interfaces and cannot use SATA or USB optical drives.
This LG CRD-8400B 40x IDE internal CD-ROM drive (IBM P/N 36L8713) is in good physical condition but is being sold as-is due to its age. It has not been tested at our facility and is not guaranteed functional — please purchase accordingly. The drive shows light cosmetic wear typical of pulled desktop components from this era.
