Bought a few months ago. Works great. a small question regarding this teh ricoh 6200s its not available here in asutralia but a similar one is being sold but in its marketing droid sheet it 'proudly proclaims' to be 'plug and play' ... i've already got a unaccessible ppro because of a plug and pray smc9432tx nic i'm not keen on adding another p'npray device. i was thinking that maybe it is just the scsi host adapter that might be the plug and pray part of this 'device' ... yes ? also we have on sale here some very nice panasonic cd writers (data and audio) on real nice feature is that the panasonic will duplicate a cd without the user having to produce an iso image first. from what i understood of the sales talk, the panasonic emulates in hardware someting like a unix dump or pax or a read from the source cd device and a dd type write to the cdrom writing panasonic ... also it will write a full cdrom in only 9 or so minutes. this panasonic requires a 'real scsi host adpater, that is a aha 2940 or a '875 something like that. the 'scsi paddle boards' like the old aha 1520 and 1510's are suitable fro this cdwriter. i was given the url .. but i've misplace teh wetware sector i stored the data .. grin. i'm sure it can be found by browsing the national panasonic (a japanesse company, matshushita is teh conglomerate source). > > > > yamaha 400, 400at and teh current one being the yamaha 4416s > > > > (he said he hadn't personallly tried this one but that the > > > > earlier one the yamaha 4260 did work very well. > > > > > > 4416s here, excellent drive! both of these -- 4416 and 4260 are available here in australia for about $AUD700 this is for a glossy box lots of software and of course the cd-writer. ps the panasonic (its a 9xxx seris product id) sells for about $AUD1000 .. its not cheap but then it does a lot of things the others dont do and it is also a fast device (20x read for std mode). again thank you all who replied. regards jonathan -- =============================================================================== Jonathan Michaels PO Box 144, Rosebery, NSW 1445 Australia =========================================================== To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
