Ah, yes, I remember the Pioneer CD changers for data CDs! I put one on a
PC file server once and shared all 6 CDs out to the users.
The drive seemed to read one block at a time from each CD, so it spent
most of its time swapping CDs rather than reading. Subsequently, the
whole thing packed it in less than a month after it was bought :-)
[swap] [read] [swap] [read] [swap] [read] [swap] [read]
You get the idea!
Cheers,
Ben
