I'm planning to buy an external CD-ROM reader for my system.
A dealer proposed me to buy a double speed Apple CD-300e SCSI external unit.

I already own an Adaptec 1542CF which runs an M2511A 128MB magneto
optical drive, using the latest Adaptec drivers from hobbes.

Does anyone know if the Apple CD-300e unit is supported by OS/2 in some way?
Does any CD-ROM driver exist for this unit?

Thanks in advance.

It works just fine.  The drive is really a Sony drive.  I'm used
it under 2.11, Warp I and currently Warp II.  Actually I'm listening
to an audio CD right now off it.

OS/2 setup will identify it as a Sony drive.  No additional 
drivers are needed (and you can install OS/2 off CD).
