I've been using Toast Titanium for burning CDs on SCSI external burners. They are also used for booting from come maintenance time. My active CD drive is CD-Rom Toolkit 4.0.1 mainly due to the internal Matshita drive that I've kept because it is a 24x and still very functional for everything that I need to do except burning CDs. I thought the Teac unit you pointed out, with the 50-pin connection, would be the one-stop solution for reading/burning, etc while eliminating Matshita drive and the required third party driver. The Toast CD-Reader extension is active but I never gave it much thought as to its function. I will read again your explanation and see how this applys to my situation and the feasibility of considering the Teac unit. Thanks for your help and tip.
