Hi All,
I have a Pioneer DRM-624X 6 disk magazine type external CD drive. I bought it on eBay and it seem to be in good condition. I am still using Asim CDFS 2.0 which lists this series of Pioneer drives but as 6xx-X. I assume that was because they were constantly upgrading the read speed and the last two xx digits were the speed. CDFS sees this drive and asks me how I want to configure it, (one drive or six). I go through all the motions and it still won't put any icons on the workbench screen. When I boot up the drive goes through all the slots and then lets the machine continue booting up. I thought that maybe that was the problem so I pulled the mag and put it back in after boot up. It still went through all the mag looking at every CD but put nothing on the workbench screen. I looked at it with OPUS where it is shown but it says there is no disk in it. I am wondering if anybody has this drive and if so do they know anything I can do to fix it or troubleshoot it. I sort of wonder if the laser is bad or not functioning. It could be the pick-up too. All ideas and suggestions are appreciated. Thanks.
Dave
