I purchased the DAK cheap CD-ROM a while back. To my surprise the CD-ROM came with a SCSI interface card for my IBM PC clone. And the CD-ROM has a SCSI "out" connection. My question is this: Does anyone know if I can attach other SCSI devices to the CD-ROM?…

I am looking for a CD-ROM that I can move between my IBM clone and my Mac. I use the CD-ROM during the day with the IBM clone but then my kids want to use the CD-ROM with the Mac at night. Anybody know of a CD-ROM setup that would…

I just got a CD-ROM from DAK. It is an RTM CR-501-T (but when it starts up it says something about a Matsushita?). Where can I get specs for this drive? How can I find the access time? Will Norton Utilities test the drive? Thanks in advance… Jim from Penngrove
