- Hello fellow amiga users,
-
- Does anyone have experiences with an NEC 3xe CD-ROM drive and GVP's Impact
- SCSI-II controller? I am looking at getting the NEC 3xe CD-ROM drive, and
- am wondering what people have to say about it. I am looking for both good
- and bad experiences. Here is my system to date:
-
- Amiga 2000
- GVP Impact SCSI-II HC with 4MB of RAM, 120MB Hard Drive on the
- card
- OS 2.04
-
- I know my system looks rather old, but all I really have been using it
- for is to log into a UNIX system for the past couple of years. I really
- have not had the need for any of the fancy stuff like accelerators,
- more advanced graphics, etc.
-
- The driver I am planning on purchasing will be ASIM's 3.X driver. The major
- reason for the purchase of the CD-ROM drive, and ASIM's driver is to be able
- to look at my large collection of PhotoCD's that I have available, and get
- another CD player for use at home.
-
- If people know of problems with this system setup, or do some of the similar
- things with their current system please let me know what you have found
- to work.
-
- Thanks
-
- Scott Grabow
