It would be an options if cdrecord would not crash here when I read CDDA
TOCs in my Plextor. My brother has a very similar system and has the
same problems. (same CD drive but on board SCSI controller using aic7xxx
driver)

You can query disk information only. This is possible. I never had
problems with cdrecord / cdda2wav too - except with my Plextor drive. If
you like you could try to do a 

cdda2wav -J -D x,y,z

on your system using your Plextor drive and a CD-ROM. But please BE
CAREFUL. It could hang your SCSI subsystem. If your drives are connected
to SCSI too, it might hang your system completely.

I use the terminators on my PlexWriter - which is an SCSI Ultra capable
device. Is anything wrong with that?
