Man that would be cool, I'm still using a CD150 on my Quadra. Anyhow I would
expect a 600 to work as well as a 300. As far as drivers go, depends on your
SCSI card. A HS SCSI will work with 6.0.1's supplied drivers on a 150 and
300, but only play audio discs on a 150. I guess RAMfasts support 300s better
but dunno since I don't have one of those nor a 300. I've tried the 150 on my
IIgs and it works quite well, definitely as much CD as you need on a IIgs.
I'll hand me down the drive permanently to my IIgs when I get a new Mac with
a built in CD.
