Can anyone recommend a *reliable* mail order company that sells the Panasonic PD SCSI rewritable 650MB combined optical and CDROM drive. There are apparently 2 versions: LF-1000AB (External) <- this is the one I'm interested in. LF-1004AB (Internal) They apparently come with Corel SCSI drivers. I plan to make the SCSI connection by PCMCIA from a 755c. Can anyone suggest whether a New Media "Bus Toaster" or an Adaptec PCMCIA SCSI card would be best?
