Steve,
I believe he needs the one wiht the pronged holder that stays in the drive
while the outer clear cover comes back out when you load a CD in the
drive. To the best of my knowledge only one company made these drives. I
actually
have bare drive still in the box, and an external RRD40.
My question would be, does the Infoserver allow upgrading the CD-ROM
drive? If so I'd look into something like an RRD42 or a Plextor drive if
it will
work (I've had good luck with Plextor drives in DEC gear). The RRD40 is the
most agonizingly slow CD-ROM drive I've ever used!
I've had luck with replacing the drive in InfoServers with any old VAX-bootable CD-ROM
drive. Even the Toshiba XM-4101, which doesn't quite fit properly.
Peace... Sridhar
