Rich, I have an inquiry about a two year old CDROM. It is a Sony CDU 510 – 12 with a CDBoard – 940 (neither on eof which is no longer made). Do you have or know where I can find performance statistics on this particular drive. I want to know if this is a dinosaur that should be put to pasture. I intend to use CD's mostly for data access, encyclopedias etc…no games. Thanx, Karl

Karl: I don't have any data on this machine, and – unless one of our other fearless members here has some – Sony may be your best source. In general, though, if you are not looking to play video, games etc., older drives should be quite serviceable for basic data retrieval. Best – Rich Bowers
