I would also appreciate if you could point me to a contact from whom I can obtain a reasonably priced Plextor drive (preferably from the PX-4012 series) and would also appreciate recommendations regarding a reliable IDE-USB adapter.

There was a topic for that matter, but i can't find it right now.
Ask around, people will lead you.

Feel free to ask question on the forum, or via Discord about how to get started preserving games with Redump:

I own most of the GNU/Linux game discs listed in http://wiki.redump.org/index.php?title= … sing_Games and would like to contribute them to the database, since I could not find any of the few which I checked for.
Additionally I would like to contribute various Windows games which I have lying around. Probably a few hundred. I'm not quite sure whether I really want to dump all of them in the close future, since it's quite a bit of work, but at least my favourites and ones which I think to be special or rarer.
