Wait just a minute... version 2.30 of the Mitsumi drivers is for SINGLE SPEED
drives only.  I made the mistake of getting it, and came to find out that it
was for their single speed drives after using for two months.  The latest
version I have seen for their DOUBLE SPEED drives is 1.11.  The driver for the
SINGLE SPEED drive is called MTCDAE.SYS, and the driver for the DOUBLE SPEED
drive is called MTMCDAE.SYS (or something there abouts).  Also, note that these
files are NOT related to the MSCDEX.SYS file that comes with DOS.  The latest
version of the MCSDEX.SYS file is 2.2.  Hope this helps out!
