     If you want an optical drive, see the listings at CubeOwner:

You might, though, want to consider simply getting an external 
FireWire hard drive, such as th eones at Other World Computing:

No doubt there are UK vendors selling the same kit... though even 
with VAT and customs added, the rock-bottom US$ may make it 
worthwhile ordering from the US.

     In any case, the capacity/unit currency anywhere makes the hard 
drives a much better deal.

     My $0.02 worth,
