I don't know if I missed a setting, but it's not that fast...

well it is an alternative if you dont want to buy new stuff so you can add cd to your 1200.

But my understanding was that PC drives didn't read Amiga CDs

never had anny problems so far here used stuff like os3.9 disc .HEIMDAL 2 ++++games .cucd"s from 96-97 no problems.but be aware dont try to play games on network this is slow use whdloads for cd 32 games and install on disk(hd)
