I bought a widely-advertized Erasable-Optical drive from <deleted, send
mail for details> which was touted to work on a VS-3100 SCSI.  WARNING-
it does not work.  At all.  It turns out it worked with earlier 3100's
but not with recent models (the manufacturer says).  Something to do with
SCSI protocols. 

I don't want to give these guys all bad marks - they are sending me a
substitue magnetic drive until the problem is solved, and I think this
was as much a surprize to them as it was to me.  That's why I'm leaving 
their name out of this note.  But if you must know, send me mail.
