If your Amiga2000 has a SCSI controller with an external SCSI connector (25-pin, looks like a modem cable connector sort of) and it is one of the controllers supported by CDROM driver software (I like the Xetec driver myself) then it just works. I've used these CDROMs on an A4000 w/4091 SCSI controller, A1200 with CSA 12-guage/SCSI, etc. and other customers and friends have used 'em with GVP, TrumpCardPro (with IDC/Centronics cable from us or from IVS), etc. Without specific knowledge of your controller I can't say what your setup would be like. Some controllers just won't support CDROM at all (older GVP's need to be updated from feedback I've gotten from customers). Some A3000's don't like some CDROM's and external devices of various types, either. Hope that is helpful.
