I checked the adapter on eBay that Eric mentioned but found it had 30 pins on the dock end and I need something with 20. The mini-Dock has only two ports. One is ADB for the keyboard and the other works with the floppy drive. I assumed (never assume) that the CD-ROM would work off that port. Looks like I probably need a mini-dock with an additional SCSI port. Thanks all for the help
