LiteOn DH-4O1S-08 in a USB2.0 external case, will it work?

post #1 of 5

Hello everyone.
Im using my gaming PC as a HTPC (Q6600+8800GT). The problem is that my pc is in a diferent room for the rest of my home theater. I use hdmi, coaxial cable and a USB2.0 extension, all around 30-feet long, to reach my projector and receiver. Plus an wireless keyboard and mouse. Everything works great.
The only problem is I have to go upstairs if need to change the disc!!!
So I was thinking about putting my BD drive in a external case and connect it to my pc through the USB2.0 cable in the HT. Will it work?

Sorry if my english was wrong. did i make myself clear?

I put the LG combo drive in an ext USB case and it works so I see no reason why the LiteON wouldnt. But not really sure if the long distance is going to be an issue.
