I don't know about the Buslogic, but I think you'll have trouble with the
3x. I had heard, when they first came out that 3x CDROM drives had a lot
of problems.
About a month ago I tried on (replacing my 1x) and it wouldn't work for
either FreeBSD or Win95. I then tried a 4x NEC and it runs like a champ.
