I just went through a bunch of hastle with this type of thing. I thought NECs
multispin drives all did multisession but this is not the case. The model 
CDR-74 does not but CDR 74-1 does. A lot of frustration went into finding out
this minor difference in description. Of course I have a 74. :-( 

PS Anyone want to buy a CDR-74???
