Probably. First off, they would need to be the same sort of interface. Secondly, computer companies often have proprietary enclosures around the hard drives- kind of like a bracket. You can usually swap them if the hard drives have the same interface and are the same physical size.
If the processor and memory components from the Dell motherboard are also used, it is possible to put a Dell motherboard into an HP computer.
Yes, it doesnt matter the type.

Only if you have a Blu-Ray compatible hard drive
A CD ROM drive cannot read a DVD. So it is not possible to use a CD ROM as a DVD ROM. A DVD ROM drive can work with a CD though.
You can use a USB DVD Drive.
No... but you could just go to dell's site to get an external disc drive it plugs in to the usb port
Not necessarily. You can have a CD/DVD reading drive that does not write.
There's no way you can install the CD / DVD drive from a Dell laptop in an iBook. The hard drive should be possible, as long as they are both IDE drives.

Use an external DVD/ CD drive
A CD drive cannot use a DVD. They are different systems.
A CD-R or CD-RW or DVD-R or DVD-RW will do.
The simple answer is you can't. A DVD-r is physically different from a CD. You can use it in many ways like a CD, but in the end, it is not a CD, and you will only be able to use it in a DVD drive or player, regardless of what you do to it. They are apples and oranges. Both edible, but not really comparable beyond that.
