- Todd, do you know the model number of the mechanism in your drive?
- I've been getting conflicting information from two InSite dealers here.
- One says there is a "Mac" version with a motorized eject (so you can eject
- disks from software) and a "PC" version with a mechanical eject. The other
- guy says there is no such beast with a motorized eject. If I can give them
- a model number, maybe I will be able to get one. I'd rather not go back to
- Tulin after my hard drive fiasco.
