Use "burner" in your search term instead. I used "optiplex 5050 sff DVD burner," and quite a few options came up. I know you were searching for used. Not sure how many used ones you'll find for the 5050, but I did find an "open box" one for $15.60. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Dell-Optiplex-5040-5050-7040-7050-SFF-DVD-RW-Optical-Drive-DU-8A5LH-PNDVV-TESTED-/274387613141?_trksid=p2385738.m4383.l4275.c10

Hi,
Thanks for the reply - much appreciated.
I actually managed to order a DELL PRECISION DVD WRITER Part 0FRN5X from Ebay - complete with the blue plastic clip I expect I will need to fit into my 5050.
This was based on a private message from 'DELL-Cares' Moderator account.
Cheers!
