My Acer Travelmate 2420 Laptop DVD Rom Is Dying - Need Replacement!?

My DVD-Burner in my laptop is crashing my pc consistantly, Laptop has a hard time even detecting the drive, you'd have to eject the tray, push it back in and hold it, and it would start up sometimes otherwise, upon use it would automatically be disconnected from windows, and the drive would disapear, (event viewer views the drive as being removed from the system) Is there a type of slim Internal DVD Burner im looking for? model, specs, design so it fits properly? connectors? wires? what am i looking for?

1. Let me get this straight, you are going to by a new dvd rom and want to know what model to buy? Or you want to know whether to buy a new one or not? If you want to know what model to buy you have to go to acer support. Typically if will have a special section for replacement parts and you will find the model there, then you go over to eBay and buy it for half price. If you want to know whether or not to buy a new dvd rom drive I would say yes, buy one.
