[Coco] Is there a way to Run a CD-ROM drive using something other than the SCSI cartridge pak?

[tim franklinlabs.com]

   Even if it could read the CD, how would you format the CD???? Is there
   a utility available to format the CD and put software on it??? Just
   curious

     SuperDriver should work READ only on the Gside or sIDE interfaces.

     I don't remember if we tried that or not, but I know it supported
     ATA and ATAPI devices.

     HawkSoft's CDF file manager also a plus for the ISO9660.

     Hi Everyone,

     Does anyone know if there is a way to run a CD-ROM drive on the Coco
     1, 2 or

     3 using something other than the SCSI controller? I don't have a
     SCSI

     controller for the Coco, but after reading some of the CD-ROM emails
     lately,

     it occurred to me that I had never hooked up a CD-ROM drive to my
     Coco. I

     know it is possible to use the IDE Interface on a PC to run a CD-ROM
     drive

     so I was wondering if the same could be done with the SuperIDE
     Controller or

     the Glenside IDE Controller. Has anyone ever tried this before? Any
     help

     would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
