Eddie, I think I can shed some light on your comments as well as I have a couple of questions. First of all, my 3401 is mounted internal to the 4000, looks great and works as you have noted. So I don't have to worry about power on issues. Second. There is a jumper on the 3401 that will allow pass thru on the termination. I will look in my manual and get back to you with the number so you can change if you need to. I also have a floptical, an Iomega unit. (I work for a IBM s/w company and got it from them for nothing, I just had to test with it). I have a problem with it in that it wont recongnize a disk change, any ideas about this. It will notice the first diskette inserted and then when I eject it the diskette icon stays on the screen and if I put another diskette in it doesn't put an icon up, but instead uses the same one that is already on the screen. I am also using the ASIM s/w, I didn't know there was a 2.0 version out, but I am planning on going to the WOC show this weekend and if they are there I will check about that. As you probably know, the 3401 is capable of reading music cd's as data and you can copy from the cd to hd and if there were s/w you could cut and paste and if you had a recordable cd you could create your own music. Lots of if's, but have you heard of any s/w that supports any of this? Also, what about Photocd support? I don't think the ASIM stuff does as I put a disk in and it doesn't recognize it at all.. Stay in touch, and thanks for the comments. Alan Adamson [72370,613]
