Folks, I've stumbled onto a CD-R drive that I'd like to thunk into my FreeBSD box. I know little about it and haven't the slightest clue what SW I need for it. This is an external "Smart and Friendly" CD-R 2006 Plus. It's got a normal centronics-like SCSI connection with external terminator. I think I'm going to plug it in along side my external SCSI 4mm HP Jetstore 2000 tape drive. Am I confused to think that the hardware aspects of this should "Just Work"? What, if any, SW will I need? I'd like to construct a large file system and thunk a whole bunch of stuff like tar files onto a CD and be able to mount it as a file system later. Things like that. Suggestions? I don't have a clue where to even begin. As a last resort, I could instead move all this SCSI crud to a Winblows 95 box and do it there if needed.
