   I am using the Cutting Edge drive. I had to do a little soldering on
the A-MAX to get the drive to work with my 1000, it worked unmodified
(and after modification as well) on a 2500. Before the modification,
the drive refused to recognize a Mac disk, it kept saying "Unrecognized
disk" and trying to reformat it. It did spin and eject disks. It works
great now.
