Bootable in 9.2.1, which is what I use on my Beiges.

Should be bootable in earlier versions as well.

Is also bootable in SCSI-based Macs (7200-9600, e.g.) using an ACARD 
"SCSI-IDE Bridge" (often available on eBay, also available from Microland 
USA, the ACARD distributor in the U.S.).

With the SCSI-IDE Bridge, the -105, -106 and -107 (and many other drives) 
are compatible with Toast.

I have used this combo on a 7300 to burn optical disks (CD-Rs, actually) 
using Toast.

The ACARD "Bridge" makes the EIDE optical drive looks like a SCSI drive, 
which is actually quite easy for a hard drive, but is rather drive 
specific for a demountable, optical drive.

The Pioneer optical drives get "two thumbs up" from me.

(But, so also do the Yamaha SCSI drives, which I use as well).
