Re: External CD ROM Drives
Quoting Dylan McDermond [EMAIL PROTECTED]: I've found that just about any SCSI CD-ROM will work with my older Macs - as long as I use the proper extension. The one from 7.6, I believe, would work with any CD-ROM drive. If you end up needing the extension, let me know and I can email it to you. -Dylan Thanks for the helpful comments (everyone). I assume then, it's just a case of having an external box with a DB25 connector. Or is it DB15? Nathan -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

DB25, but watch out for ones made to connect to a PC's parallel port. The other connector to look for is a CEN50, which looks like a parallel port on a printer, but wider.

Re: External CD ROM Drives
heyyy... that rang a BIG bell inside my head. :) I do have a Pioneer CD CHanger called LaserMemory, a 1624 I guess (don't remember well right now), and I havent been able to connect it to ANYTHING except a WinTel machine running Windows For Workgroups 3.11 several years ago. Have not been able to run it EVEN on Linux. Might it be that I could put it to work when connected to the loyal Mac IIci? It has 3 CD magazines of 6discs each one, would be sweet for fileserving.. :P Anyone has info on this?

I know it works with 9.2.2 because I used it on my 7300 to run a Pioneer 6-disc CD changer. -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
