Oops. The drive I have is a XM-4101B. I wouldn't be supprised if a few
different models of Toshiba drives work. BTW the RRD-42 and toshiba drive
(which look exactly the same minus the labels perhaps) are both tray load
2x.

My RRD-43 has a wicked heavy duty tray like I've never seen on any other
CD-ROM drive before. Usually they're just these cheap plastic trays, but
the RRD-43 is heavy metal and the CD really "snaps" into the center hub.

"Toshiba XM-3401TA" - Just a plain old

from my hard drive, I could mount CD-ROM discs fine. No problems with
operation at all.
I'm fairly certain that this is the same as a RRD-42. My RRD-42 is the
same as the Toshiba drive that was in my SparcStation 5, and yes it is
2x. That's probably why it worked just fine.
