Now that I read this - how is the situation for FreeBSD programming considering ATAPI and SCSI peripherials? Do I have to stick to two different programming models or is it possible to have low level access to those drives (e.g. play a CD DA audio track) via a common interface like CAM? Another problem is the price gap. The consumer markets offer cheap drives for IDE or even USB, but less and less SCSI. I have need for a CD RW and a DVD drive in the next months, but still hesitate what interface to buy. If we want to make our system more attractive for normal people I am afraid we have to support the cheapo stuff too..
