The fixed optical is a DVD. There would *maybe* the option to "have a look inside" and find out if the fixed can't be attached to the second channel. If you dig deep on Dells supprot pages (maybe dell.com and not .de) you will be able to find a pdf on how to disassemble/reassemble an Inspiron (8k).
