NT compatible USB CD-RW drive needed
This is a discussion about NT compatible USB CD-RW drive needed in the Windows Hardware category; I need a portable, external USB CD burner compatible with Windows NT and can't find any. I found a few parallel port CD burners but, I need to feel comfortable that there aren't any such USB drives before I give on up on them.

Preferably, I need a USB CD burner I can attach to laptops and desktops that run Windows NT (SP5 on laptop, SP6a on desktop). I was about half-way through my search when I ran into this forum (and site) so, I thought this would be a good place to ask about this while I continue my search.
I haven't hit any hardware compatibility lists for NT and USB CD burners yet.

That's because NT4 doesn't support USB. You buy USB programs for alot of $$$ or if you get lucky you MIGHT find a company that wrote a specific driver to get their USB device to work under NT4 but they will be VERY hard to find.
I suggest upgrading 'em to NT5 or find some other solution.

Well, the Zip650 CDRW USB works fine under Win2k...but that's not going to do you much good I guess...
