I have an ATAPI changer that does ok with FreeBSD. There are some problems with it (or the driver) forgetting to switch the right disk under the head if the disks get hit just right (for example: disk 0 then disk 1, then disk 0 again, before the switch to disk 1 is finished). As for SCSI, I've seen several CD-ROMs that don't play well with other devices, but they do ok if they are on their own channel (or just with other similar devices, but not hard disks). -- Zach Heilig To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hardware" in the body of the message
