- I hooked up the Chinon (I think) SCSI CDROM reader (sold by Xetec) to
- the external SCSI port of my A2091 controller and it works fine. The
- brochure I got from Xetec listed the specific hardware/software combinations
- supported. You probably better find your configuration of controller,
- CDROM drive, and software on such a list before commiting to a purchase.

- wonderful :)
