Summary: Rotsa Ruck. Keywords: SONY, CDROM, 40-pin, SCSI, A2000, 2091 Message-ID: <1991Apr17.174658.2918@kessner.denver.co.us> Date: 17 Apr 91 17:46:58 GMT References: Organization: The Kessner Institute of Something or Other. Lines: 20 My Suggestion: Good Luck. We have an external variant of that Sony drive for a PC at the store. It has that same micro-40-pin connector. It connects to a dedicated controller card in the PC. According to the skimpy manual that was included, that model is NOT SCSI. It is the "Sony Bus." Whatever that is. It seems very similar to SCSI, as it uses SCSI-like addressing, and a few other SCSIish concepts, but as far as adapting it to SCSI, you have my best wishes. You'll need it. ;) Chris - Xenon -- #define chris Christopher_Eric_Hanson || Lord_Xenon || Kelson_Haldane I work, but you don't know who I work for. And I'm not on their machines.
