I got a SCSI CD-ROM for my IBM computer. Since it is SCSI, does that mean I can also use it on my Mac? What software would I need to get? Does the Mac need a "device driver" or equivalent? Where would I get one? Thanks in advance, Jim from Penngrove

If it is a SCSI drive you can use on MAC, Atari and many other platforms. This is assuming you have the right drivers. You can usually get a driver for the MAC in either MAC forums on Compuserve or directly from the manufacturer of the drive. Download the files CDFAQ.TXT and CDROMF.ZIP … the both contain quite a bit of useful information.

Thanks for the help on my SCSI CD-ROM drive. I hope to have it hooked into my Mac before long (easy to say)… Jim from Penngrove
