??? Thereīs no problem in repeating the /D:drvname option several
times with NWCDEX/MSCDEX if you have multiple hardware
CD drivers loaded. But Iīm not sure if I understand you correctly,
as you probably knew this already... ;-)

Very good. I was asking, because most people donīt. ;-)

I once had a Pioneer DR-U12X (on an ASUS SC-875
SCSI host adapter with SDMS 4.1x and current drivers)
and a Pioneer DR-A10??? (ATAPI drive using Pioneer
driver) working fine with NWCDEX, but since I was mixing
SCSI and IDE and I didnīt tried to play audio on the second
drive, this might be a completely different story. Playing audio
on the first drive worked (using the Mitsumi PLAYCD 1.30)
The ATAPI drive broke some time ago, so I can no longer
test this configuration.
