It's a really old caddy-type cdrom (1991). The cdu535 I think is similar, but external. It has it's own interface card (not ide or scsi). Actually, the cdu31A is similar but is different enough that the drivers don't work. I think it's a 1x or 2x (maybe 1x) and pretty slow. It's probably not worth even supporting. The data transfer rate is only a little faster than a floppy. Just checking to see if anyone has a driver, or has ported one from Linux. My guess is no, there isn't any. Thanks Donn
