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.

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. > Terminators are active (or the ones on a Ultra device)?

I use the terminators on my PlexWriter - which is an SCSI Ultra capable device. Is anything wrong with that? Alexander -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
