Is it possible to use an IDE to SATA connector? I want to install my Pioneer BDR burner to potentially use the PMG5 for data disc burning only. Any thoughts?

Misleading title. I know how to unplug the drive, thank you very much.

I've replaced the original drive with a better one and the %#*@ tray is stuck because it's too high.
