Just wondering. As I recall, these were sturdy little SCSI CD drives that are now showing up on ebay for super cheap.

I'm not aware of a SCSI CD-ROM wich won't run on NeXT. I'm using Pioneer DVD drives, don't think that it make sense to add today a deadly slow drive. (with exception the original NeXT CD-ROM for black coolness :))

Yes, at least for the 300e I'm using.

iirc, I'm using an Apple 600e on my mono station. I'll double check when I get home.

I've tested all my drives from Apple:

150 i/e
300 i/e
600 i/e

Even the CD SC (the first very bulky one with the caddy mechanism) works at least with my cube but not with the NeXtstation.
