Has anyone out there gotten an Optimem 2400 WORM to work connected to a
Sun Sparcstation?  The problem seems to be an interaction between the
Optimem and Sun's "new" SCSA [sic] SCSI drivers or the Sun hardware.

These same drives work fine with the Sun 3 series systems running
SunOS3.5.  But connected to my Sparcstation, I get all kinds of strange
SCSI bus data transfer and reset errors from device "esp0".

We are migrating our products from the Sun 3 machines to Sparcstations,
and being able to use optical WORMs is an absolute necessity.  Help!
