Not for audio, but it works fine with either the HS SCSI card or the RamFAST
SCSI for data.  In fact, if you have a RamFAST, you might as well get a CD 300
because the RamFAST can't do audio anyway.  The HS SCSI card uses the GS/OS
SCSI drivers (whereas the RamFAST "drivers" are built into its ROM), and the
GS/OS drivers haven't been updated to recognize the different audio commands
of the CD 300.  Of course, if you want to write a new driver for it, we'd all
be most grateful... :-)
