Installing new CD-Writer
Hi,
I've just recently installed an HP 9600 series SCSI CD-Writer into an Ultra 30 system.
Question: Where do I hook up the sound output of the CD-Writer onto the motherboard? Or better yet, is there documentation showing me where to connect the soud cable from the CD-writer to the motherboard?
Thank you in advance,
James Falknor

Lee does remember correctly.
There's no audio connector, directly on the U-30 board.

The best you could hope for, is that if your Sun system has that useless
audio interface card in it, you might try to run a 3.5mm stereo-to-mono wire
from the CD-RW's headphone jack, around to the microphone jack of that card.
(the headphone output is an amplified signal, not a line-level output,
thus it would go to the mike jack)
An application would then have to be able to use the input signal, to accomplish anything.
I wouldn't get any hopes up for success.
