From the project
GD-IDE for the Toshiba GD-ROM
The Sega Dreamcast uses a GD-ROM Optical Drive to read the game discs. Some clever people discovered that the optical drive uses connections similar to an IDE HDD. If you look for Dreamcast HDD mod on Google Images you'll see some crazy stuff. People were just soldering 40 pin flat ribbon cables to the motherboard or optical drive directly, which looks pretty cool to be honest.
