Jonathan,
I recently installed a Toshiba XM-3401B for a client, and I am highly
impressed. The 3401 is MUCH faster than anything I have used before, and I
had no difficulty getting it working with an UltraStor 24F SCSI host
adapter, using UltraStor's SCSI CD-ROM driver software. The drive hasn't
been in service very long, but from what I've seen so far, I don't know how
you could do better. BTW, that host adapter was already driving the hard
disk in the system, so the CD-ROM became the second device in the SCSI
chain. That seems to work just fine.
What package is being offered with the 3401? I am thinking of replacing my
older CD-ROM with a 3401 and would like to get a deal on some disks along
with the drive.
Good luck with your search.
