#NEC CD-ROM

Eric, there are several incarnations of the new Toshiba CD-ROM drives
(including a changer). I have seen the new drives listed in an inventory
computer system with the prices, but I'm not really sure which one is
which. It didn't have the model numbers listed. I need more info from
Toshiba and the distributors first. The prices seem to be "premium" -Eric
Eric—
I hope that you will post a message(or send me Email) about the
pricing/features(and what distributors carry them) when they are available.
Maybe I'll ask Toshiba at COMDEX, but I find that COMDEX is usually the
worst place to get answers. Thanks.
Eric
My information on the new Toshiba's is that xfer rate is basically doubled
while access time remains the same. Prices remain at the upper end…

I just saw a blurb on the new Toshiba's with some pricing. The internal
version will list for $695 while the external version will list for $895.
Ouch!!!

Access time is also improved to 200ms on the new Toshiba drives. -EC
Chinon is also introducing double-speed drives at Comdex (the 535), along
with 3.5" CD-ROM drives that can read Sony DataDiscMan discs and are ISO
9660 and High Sierra compatible. -Eric
