When I bought my LaCie CD-RW (with a Yamaha 4416s mechanism) several years ago, it came bundled with Toast 3.5.6. I'm going to guess that 3.0.2 is too old for that drive; go to adaptec.com (or roxio.com, since they've changed names) and see. Does your version of Toast include the Read Me file? (I can email you the 3.5.6 version, not that it will really help withy 3.0.2) According to the Toast manual, it is not necessary to have the Toast CD reader installed to use Toast (the Toast app includes all the necessary drivers). In fact, you are supposed to boot with extensions off when burning. BTW, I bought that drive for my System 7.1 SE/30, too :-); (OT - now I also use it with my iMac and the Orange Firewire converter - still use Toast 3.5.6) Chris -- Compact Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/>.
