    MATSUSHITA 3.2.2 Supported SCSI Adapters Through AEC-7722 an IDE DVD drive can be transformed into a SCSI one, but most CD recording software still regards it as an IDE one . Thus the recording soft- ware will send 12-byte IDE commands. Only a special SCSI adapter such as AEC- 67160 can solve the problem.
