Paul -

Thanks for the explanation, which I need to take the time to digest.
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.

Alan, Just for your info and others... If you ever decide to move to 
OSX. You will find the Matshita 24x works great with the built in CD 
drivers. The early versions of OSX some versions it worked and the next 
it didn't odd but true. But at some point perhaps OSX 10.1.5 and newer 
it works great even for installing the Mac OS. I use it all the time 
for reading Cd's & playing audio cd's with iTunes. Which means i can 
leave my SCSI CDRW and Firewire DVD burner off except for when needing 
to burn a disk. Will S
