The compatible models are (all IDE drives)

GDR-8161b
GDR-8162b
GDR-8163b
GDR-8164b

...and a couple of others.

If you already have one of these drives then great otherwise I suggest you look into dumping image from Wii to PC via Wi-Fi as described here -> [Only Registered Users Can See Links. Click Here To Register]
