These drives were installed in a DEC InfoServer (which was a networkable CD-ROM tower) that had been sitting in it's sealed box since the mid/late 90's.
I tested this (and all) CD-ROM drives I sell, because I've found that is generally a good thing to do when dealing with NOS hardware from 20+ years ago... I prefer to sell tested & known good items.
Thank you for stopping by. Have a great day!
