I picked up a CDD2600 (the successor to the 2000), and am having a heck of
a time. So far, I've made nothing but a couple of frisbees and/or
coasters. (Apparently SCSI bus errors. I think I have a bad host card; my
tape drive doesn't work right, either.)
Since I'm now in the market for a new SCSI host adapter. What do you have
that works so well? (And are you using an IDE or SCSI HD for your staging
drive?)
One last question.. What's the best way to duplicate a 9660 disk? I've
tried:
dd if=/dev/scd0 of=/dev/hdb1 # hdb1 is my staging partition
cdwrite --device /dev/sgda /dev/hdb1
Will this work?? (If not, what will?)
The ability to dupe audio CDs would be nice; however, I really have to
question using a $10 blank to copy a $14 CD...

The blanks that came with my drives are VERY blue. The Fuji disks are a
blue-green. Memorex disks are green. The Fuji and Memorex disks are the
cheapest that Fry's had.
