Hi,

I have a Logitech Soundman Games soundcard. It has a CD-ROM interface. Accor-
ding to the manual I can connect a Sony CDU-31A player to it. 
Questions:
1. Does anybody know anything about that Sony CDU-31A drive? 
   (since they have a new budget model CDU-33A (according to PC magazine,
   februari 22, 1994) I suppose that this is an older single speed model?)
2. Is this interface compatible with any other drive? (other brand, or the
   above mentioned CDU-33A?)
2b. Is there a Sony drive that is compatible with above mentioned interface,
    XA, Photo CD (multi session) AND CD-I?
3. What are the performance differences between using a soundcard or a
   SCSI interface?


Many thanks,
Karel Geertsema
