I thought it was the 7.6 extension, not the one with 7.6.1? There is a
difference between the two, and one works and the other doesn't. I've
place the 7.6 extension in the System Folder/extensions of the StarMax
and it does NOT work, at least for me. Now, to experiment with the one
from the 7.6.1 update. Heck, if this keeps up, I'll just swap out the
OEM drive and salvage one from one of my old Macs sitting around!
StarMax is a nice machine otherwise!

Wasn't there a problem with using Apple's CD Extensions that were
newer than System 7.5.3 when using a SCSI CD in the StarMax? I seem
to recall that I had to replace the driver both when I upgraded to
8.5 and then 9.1. I remember having to use TomeViewer to extract the
drivers from a System 7.5 CD.
If time and events have distorted my memory I would enjoy being
enlightened.

Ruffin,
For the price of mailing, I have an external SCSI drive that you can
have. Let me know.

Actually swapping in an Apple SCSI CD-ROM was one of the better
upgrades I did to my StarMax. In addition to allowing me to mount
a second IDE HD, the standard Apple CD driver now worked and any
retail OS 8.1-9.1 CD is 'C' key bootable.
Okay, there's been just enough traffic about a SCSI drive that I'm
going to throw netiquette to the wind and ask -- without checking
the archives! -- what are some good donor boxes (or other sources)
for finding SCSI CD drives?
Thanks,
Ruffin Bailey
