What combo drive for G4 Quicksilver?

[Rend It]

Help! I have a PowerMac G4 Quicksilver at work that I'd like to put Tiger on, but it only has a CD-RW drive. I don't want to pay $10 for the Tiger CDs because it makes more sense to me to pay a little more and get a combo drive. So, my question is, will any old combo drive work, or are there specific ones for a Mac? Any recommendations? Also, do I need to do anything special to make it work, or can I just plug it in and that's it?

The specs are:

Mac OS 10.0.4
Single G4 @ 733MHz
512 MB RAM
CD-RW drive in top slot
Zip drive in bottom slot

Also, do I need to do anything special to make it work, or can I just plug it in and that's it?

As always, much thanks in advance for anyone's help!!

You may as well buy a DVD burner since they are so cheap now. I got a Pioneer DVR-109 burner for $50 at newegg.com. Go to xlr8yourmac.com and go to the drive database to check compatibility of different drives.

The Pioneer is a dual layer burner too, can't really beat the price nowadays. DL DVD's are way too expensive now, but will eventually drop I guess.

or just put it into target disk mode and hook it up to a mac with a dvd drive ten boot from the dvd on that mac and install onto your g4, thats what i did with my ibook.
