I'm comparing the CD Porta Drive to the Chinon 431, looking to buy.

Do these drives both use the same mechanism? (toshiba 3201, I think?)

Do either of these drives work with A/UX? For example, If I buy the
A/UX CD from Apple, will I be able to use it? I called Cd Technologies,
and they couldn't tell me if I could. (No reviews of CD Rom drives that
I have seen say anything about using them with A/UX.)

If I buy A/UX on CD do I have to have an Apple CD SC? (I hope not.)

Any thinghts would be appreciated.
