Complete your period-correct late-1990s battlestation with this quintessential beige classic: an original Mitsumi CRMC-FX240M 32X Max Internal IDE CD-ROM Drive!

Back when games arrived on multi-disc jewel cases and full-motion video (FMV) was cutting edge, Mitsumi was the gold standard workhorse installed in millions of custom beige towers, Gateway 2000s, and Packard Bells. Featuring that iconic tactile front headphone jack, dedicated volume thumbwheel, emergency pinhole eject, and a molded "32X MAX" tray bezel, this drive is an absolute dream component for authentic MS-DOS, Windows 95, and Windows 98 SE gaming rigs.

Whether you're booting up StarCraft, installing Half-Life, or listening to Redbook audio tracks straight from your CD through your Sound Blaster card via the rear analog audio header, this drive delivers peak 90s PC gaming nostalgia.
