Cheap SCSI stuff, Plextor, Yamaha, etc.....

jason_j_a · 03-22-2001, 08:19 PM

Selling a SCSI Plextor 12/20 CD-ROM (internal) $30

Yamaha 4x SCSI CDR burner (internal) $50

Iomega PCI SCSI2 card (made by Advansys, no boot bios though) $40

Will sell all three as a package for $80

The Plextor is great for audio extraction. Being SCSI disk copies and burning uses very little CPU utilization. I'm getting rid of my SCSI components because I need the PCI slot for another card. Buyer pays actual shipping cost and I prefer paypal.com payments. I have Ebay feedback under jason_j_a@msn.com so feel free to check up on me. Email me at this email if your interested.

Thanks,
Jason.

What is meant by the 12/20 on the Plextor unit?

That is an Awesome price on that Plextor, if you are willing to wait a week to sell it till I go and get back from New York I am interested in it. Don't need no stinkin' Burn-Proof with a SCSI. But seriously interested.

The Plextor 12/20 is a CAV drive. Meaning it spins at a constant angular velocity so on the inside of the disk ( the part with the smallest radius) it reads at 12x but on the outside rim of the CD the head is actually reading at about 20X. Get out your physics book for more info

This drive is a couple of years old and Plextor used this technology back then as to not mislead the consumer. Today everyone just qoutes the max read speed as the drive speed.

I can vouch for that plextor drive. I've got one, and
I've had zero problems with it. And cd copying onto
a scsi burner is suweeeeet.
