    all USB based cd/dvd drives should be compatible. I've used a viewsonic drive (from the VOT132 seires), and an old hp external laptop drive.

    gurk: I can't be of too much help; I use an HP DVD-300E, which I bought years ago and have used with many tabletPCs.

    However, I'm a little surprised by your comment in the sense that I would have assumed that any HP optical drive would have been compatible with the Slate 500. Did you install the software bundle that HP typically includes with their drives? In particular, did you install any driver software?
