I have a Laser Mangetics LD-520 rewritable optical disk with SCSI interface
on my 486 pc. I have found Advanced Archival Products Inc. (303)-792-9700
Mr. Chris Kokias extension 203, have a device driver for SONY, HP, RICOH
PIONEER, PANASONIC, & MAXOPTIX for SunOs 4.1.1, the cost is about $500.
If anybody used this driver or other device drivers please let me know
before I make a decision.
