have used them regularly on my TP 365XD with no problems under Win95 and OS/2 Warp 4. I needed to
set my parallel port to Bi-directional. Also, shouldn't use the ECP/EPP setting that uses DMA. The H45
drives cannot use DMA. The drives are slower than SCSI or PCMCIA connected drives, but they are more
than adequate for most functions.

Wow, even works with OS/2. As for speed, especially on a notebook, is it slower
than a 16x or higher SCSI or IDE CD-ROM?
