@OroBrasil, Welcome to the HP Support Community!

Thanks for reaching out about your query regarding HP DVDRAM!  
We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution.  

The HP DVDRAM GT80N is an internal optical drive, typically used in laptops or desktops with a SATA connection. If you want to use it as an external DVD reader on a Mac, you'll need a SATA-to-USB adapter or enclosure to connect it properly.

Let me know if you need further help!

Take care, and have an amazing day!

Thank you very much for your attention.

I did it, SATA to USB cable, coming directly from enclosure I have here. but nothing.

In System Setting, at System Information, doesn't show any burning device, also if when I connect it, internal led is flashing, I can open the drawer and insert DWD.
