Compatible PCMCIA CD Drives for A1200?

[bob808]

I am thinking of adding a PCMCIA CD drive to my A1200, but cant find a list anywhere to say what drives are compatible?

I have found a couple of drives on ebay that say they are ok, but anything with a buy now is about £60 which is a bit more than I would like to pay.

Just looking for PCMCIA Cd drives has shown a lot more, but I cant tell if they would work or not - and if so where would I get the drivers?


Thanks

Thanks for the advice

I have for my main Windows PC a Sony usb dvd writer - would this work with the USB card?  If so then that could be my way forward.

For the time being, I will give the network a try just to get OS 3.9 installed as I have an ethernet pcmcia card for the amiga.

I also have a PCMCIA > CF adapter and 1GB CF II card so will give that a go and see if it works on the amiga.

thanks again
