try to change sector size on your external cd from 512 to 2048 bytes or
vice-versa. It is a jumper behind the drive.

Hello all,
. . . . For those of you who having not been following my trials and
tribulations with a 16700A in another topic here is a partial update. I
received this LA from a benefactor who has stepped forward. A real big
thanks to him. I have run into that incompatibility problem with External
CD-ROM Drives.
. . . . I am disabled and partially housebound. I am living on SSD so
money is very tight for me. I am looking for a CD-ROM Drive for little or
nothing that is compatible with the 16700A I have an NEC 3x Drive that uses
the CD Carriers. Remember those. I have installed this and a Maxtor 245MB
SCSI drive in an External SCSI box. The Termination on the CD-ROM Drive is
turned off and I removed the Termination resistors on the HDD. I have a
Terminator installed on the end of the SCSI bus on the External Case. Could
someone please help me out? Any and all help is greatly appreciated.
GOD Bless and Thanks,
rich!
