Supposedly you can find them via their fastfax service (I forget the # but if you call 800 Information and ask their tech support and call there they will have it on their voice mail). Otherwise support@nectech.com will mail you command sets as well. BTW, as a related NEC thing, does anyone out there have a NEC CDR-200 or NEC CDR-210 (I think the first is also called the 2Vi, the second is the OEM model) that works with audio cd player commands? As far as I can tell NEC doesn't use the SCSI-2 spec for audio cd player commands, because the only O/S that can play audio CDs with this drive for me is MSDOS/Windows using the Adaptec ASPI stuff. Windows NT, NetBSD, and FreeBSD all barf on it. alex
