A customer has presented me with an interesting repair job… a CD duplicator unit. Kinda an odd machine, all eprom based from the looks of it, controls are just a small liquid crystal display on the front of the case.
Two drives have gone out and he wants them replaced. Looks like pretty standard LITE-ON 52x32x52 IDE CDRW see here
Barring an incorrect jumper setting is there any reason that anyone can think of that this thing wouldn’t work with pretty much any identical speed same interface drive. I swapped out a drive and the drive seems to be able to serve as a source drive…cd plays ok in computer, but I am getting errors if i try to write to the drive or verify anything.
