-A4000D CDROM Drive Recognizing problem

[Drummerboy]

Hello,

Some time ago I had some problems trying to install a CDROM drive in any A4000, at the time had come to the conclusion that the unit has to be 16X CDROM or less, but recently I heard that one A4000 Desktop can handle any type of CDROM drive that the problem occurs with any unit that is greater than 16X the problem which does not recognize the CDROM drive 16X greater than occurs when the HD is very old and those wearing the A4000 when they came out in the 90s.

Somebody know about this?, and can confirm this things?

Regards!

You know, some people said the same A4000 recognize if some CDROM unitwas installed from A4000 Startup menu, without any driver, and allegedly the problem is becouse the CDROM drive its not supported by the Amiga.
I haved IDEFix package or asim_atapi.device from the AsimCDFS package but not work--

I had problems with some drives (Creative and no name) -32x or faster. Some didn't run at all, some didn't want to mount at boot time - they tended to freeze the IDE bus. But most drives do work.

Yeah, thats happened to me with another A4000 when i was trying to mount a CDROM drive.
