The older list postings would be your best bet for info on an internal unit. Remember that the Mac 8500, 8600,9500 and 9600 are all similar when searching for units that have worked. At best you would want to use an ATA133 upgrade PCI unit for # of choices, as even with an upgrade to 160 SCSI via PCI card I doubt you'll find many DVD units made for SCSI. The newer the burners are, the faster they'll be and the less campatible they'll be with the slow buss speed of the S900 era machines, IMHO. Paul
Thanks Paul, this is what I needed... I have an Acard 133 in the target machine, a LiteOn DVD-ROM and a second drive a LiteOn CD-RW I'm looking at "LiteOn"
again here and "Pioneer" as choices, but I may put the "Drive" in a spare firewire enclosure. not sure yet... my concern is will OSX/OS9 "see" it. Phillip
