Title: Need a CD-Caddy for an original NeXT CD-ROM
Post by: guydestefano on October 04, 2006, 11:17:00 AM
Does anyone know where I can purchase a CD-Caddy for my original NeXT CD-ROM.  I had some, but they were lost in a moving van somewhere. I would like to use the CD-ROM, but can not without a CD-Caddy to place the CD in.  I have tried BlackHole, but get no response on either multiple e-mails and phone messages.  Also heard from Randy last night, he does not have any, and said to mention to the forum that he was very busy and could not talk to anyone for the next two to three weeks.  So please if anyone knows where I can buy one, please let me know.  Thanks in advance.   Guy

Hey,

Any CD-Caddy will work in the NeXT External CD-ROM; the Caddy just may be beige as opposed to black. Check Ebay, they are on there for under $10.00.

Good Luck,

I thought the original one was beige to let you know the caddy was already loaded.  Originals should be black?

I have a black caddy with mine, but maybe I am lucky! And the black caddy's are very hard to find.

:D

Thanks for the replies.  I have just finished talking to Rob at BlackHoleInc.Com.  He had them in stock, I ordered one and all the other parts that I needed to make the cube whole again.   Thanks again.
