        I don't believe that DirectCD will talk to anything but a CDR(W) drive.
However, Adaptec does offer something called a UDF reader which you can
install on the second machine. Unfortunately, not many older drives can read
disks written by DirectCD, my experience is that some of the files can be
read and others can't. If you have a relatively new drive than you shouldn't
have any of these problems. TTYL
