Subj:	Which Sony CD-Drive will I/O off an older SB16 basic.

 >> My 2X Panasonic CD-drive failed with CDR101 errors. I would like to
replace it with a Sony 33a. Will the SB16 basic I/O this drive or is the 33a a
true IDE drive.  <<

The following chart shows which types of drives will work with which Creative
card.  To determine the EXACT CT number of a card, please look at both the CT
number printed on the board AND the CT number on the white sticker on the
back of the card.  If they do NOT agree, use the CT number on the sticker.
Please see the note at the end on exact drives and drivers for each of the
interfaces listed below:
