Re: cd re writer
You need a special Amiga PCMCIA SCSI-Controller (called Squirrel or so), then you can connect any SCSI device to it. But I doubt it is fast enough to actually write a CD. Bye, Thomas |

Re: cd re writer

Re: cd re writer
First of all remove your fat fingers from the shift key ! Of course you can use the onboard SCSI, if you have one. Get data and power cables and think about you lead them out of the case. Perhaps the SCSI card already came with an external solution so you only need an appropriate case for the writer. Bye, Thomas |

Re: cd re writer
a) STOPP YELLING :-P
b) yes, just find out it's device is called and edit the tooltypes on devs(or storage)/dosdrivers/cd0 to fit device and unit. Now get yourself some burning SW and off you go.
