 Jerome,
   What are you going to use the MO drive on?  Just curious.  I have a
SMO-501 also. It's SLOW!!  The transfer rate and access time are WORSE than
a floppy drive. 
They weren't that slow. 
  Mine is. The access time is something close to 100ms. The transfer rate
is about 2/3 that of a floppy drive.
