Yes, but only as a data drive for CD-ROMs. For audio CDs,
you need an SCSI2 Media Control Driver that Sequential
Systems used to sell. Now they don't sell it anymore, so it
is only available used.

Yes, as a data drive for CD-ROMs.
>o Can I use the CD Remote desk accessory with this drive?
No, it is hardwired for the Apple CD100 and Apple CDSC.
For all other CD-ROMs, the Media Control Desk Accessory
must be used.
