[comp.sys.apple2] CD Rom drives

jackg@pro-ldm.cts.com (System Administrator) (11/14/90)

Well they say the the third time is the charm.  I have a Hitachi model
CDR-3650 that I'm trying to get to work on a IIgs, and have had no luck with
it at all.  I understand the Apple CD rom player is a Sony model, and have see
it work on the IIgs, using the control pannel.  My question is does anybody
know of any generic drivers for different CD players?  This is a SCSI device,
and I do have the termination set to on, and using a ID of 3. the hard drive
id is set to 6.  If not I guess I will be forced to buy a mac (?@!*&@*@) and
everybody knows thats not a good deal.

Does anyone have a list of CD Rom drives that will function
properly for the //gs? I've heard tell that some 3rd party
drives marketed for the Mac won't work properly with the //gs.

Thanks for any help.
