- I'm thinking of buying a CD-ROM for my 386/33 and I would like some advice/
- suggestions on which drive to get, what is a good price and possible mail-order
- sources.
-
- I would like to get a SCSI CD-ROM, compatible with the Media Vision Pro Audio
- Spectrum 16 sound board (I want to use its on-board interface as my SCSI
- controller).
-
- I need a drive which is MPC spec. compatible, and also CD-ROM XA capable
- (preferably).
-
- I also want an internally mounted drive.
-
- I was looking at the August issue of Computer Shopper, and I saw two drives
- which may meet my needs:
- NEC CDR-84M
- Sony CDU-535
-
- Are there any other drives out there which may offer comparable performance?
- How much is a good price for these drives?
-
- Thanks in advance,
- Taka
