Yes, it will work as the PCV-RS210 uses IDE drives and this is an IDE drive. I checked the specifications for the PCV-RS210 to confirm that. You will, however, need to get burning software as it doesn't come with any. CDBurner XP is a good free one for windows; K3b, Brasero, and Xfburn are good free ones for Linux distros.

If the Sony computer has a empty 5.25 drive bay, IED controller and you have the right software to use with the drive.

Having looked up and looked at the spec sheet for your machine it appears to be and older IDE type of interface so the Samsung will work. It is NOT a DVD burner it is read only. You can watch DVDs and listen to and store music and data. You can access video files that you have stored using third party software like VLC media player but I repeat, you cannot "Burn" DVDs.

You need to get a DVD external drive. I got the Asus drive and it works great and is small enough to fit in my laptop case when I travel.

Go to WD site support. It seems simple however there some reviews in the web forums indicating some application in the PC is required.

There is no optical drive in this laptop. You can get a cheap USB DVD/CD combo drive for somewhere around $30. Make sure that you take that into consideration when comparing prices, if having an optical drive is important to you. You can try this option from Samsung, but there are definitely other options out there: Samsung USB 2.0 Ultra Portable External DVD Writer Model SE-218CB/RSBS

You can add a usb cd/dvd drive otherwise you could replace one of the existing drives with one that you would like, but you would have to open the case and install it. I warn you that this takes some knowledge about computers and don't recommend it if you are not comfortable and familiar with the insides of computers.

You do not need the software. But you do need the driver "only" during install select drive only. In your case have soneone copy the disc to a memory chip. etc.

You need a DVD drive to install the program. Then plug the remote to the pc/laptop and call the company to activate the software.

Use a USB external cd drive like this one: http://www.amazon.com/External-Slim-CD-ROM-Drive-Black/dp/B001B1796U

My package came with the CD & instruction sheet. If I remember, connect the device in the USB port, place the CD in the drive & run the setup program.

you're referring to an OS recovery disc I assume... my guess would be no. Most PCs now a days do not include that (at least not included for no additional cost), but you should have an option to create your own using blank DVD+Rs or USB flash driveLook for the HP Recovery Manager

The Unit I purchased has DVD R/W drive, but it is Not a Blue Ray Drive. This was not issue for this unit since I mainly use it for Business and some Personal computing. I did early this year replace my Wife's computer (I don't allow her or anyone else to use my unit because "Unsafe Internet browsing" & Lack her backing up the files on the computer), which I chose to purchase a Sony All in one desk top Vaio with all the bells & whistles including a R/W Blue ray CD drive. So if that is option you must have, and if Samsung does not offer it, you may want to check out the Sony. One thing though, this Samsung has nearly the same options less the Blue Ray, and cost me about 1/3 less.

I don't have the same dvd drive that you have, but I do have two different drives removed from broken laptops ( 1 - HP, the other not sure who was the manufacturer. By plugging into USB port on my Acer laptop, I can boot to a bootable CD/DVD.

You will need a SATA hard drive and OS install disk/usb stick. Plus a keyboard / mouse and monitor

You don't This is meant to be an internal drive for a desktop computer and doesn't come with the necessary cabling to interface with a USB port on your laptop. There are sata to USB adapters you can purchase but it is an added expense. Retry. The drive and get an external DVD burner and you will not have as much equipment to haul around and easier to use

it is not on this laptop....neither is there a CD drive...I am totally unhappy with this laptop, and the vendor I bought it from. I would advise to stay away from both.
