I was going through some old papers yesterday and came across an invoice
for a CD-ROM drive that I bought back in April '93. This was a 2x (or
maybe a 4x, I don't recall) internal drive I bought from DC Drives (DC
stood for Dirt Cheap, a relative term in this case) in Houston.
Toshiba T3401I16 200mS drive with SCSI controller card $619.00
(no such thing as IDE CD's then)
In all fairness, the UltraStore ULTRA14F was $195.00 by itself
Keep in mind this is a reader only. IIRC, I bought an HP writer a
couple of years later for about $1000.
