Sure - you need an CDEV/INIT called SCSI Parker.  Since my drive is an auto-
parking drive, I have since removed this from my system.  Wait, thanks to
DiskTop, I can move it back and look it up (via the Control Panel).  Here's
the information you're looking for:  The version I have is v1.1, and it's by
Bruce Tomlin (Shareware, $5.00).  You can write him at 15801 Chase Hill Blvd.
#109, San Antonio, TX  78256.  I suppose if you want, I can send it to you,
or possibly submit it to comp.binaries.mac for distribution (although I think
it's probably in the SUMEX archives already).  Hope this helps (and saves you
from having to reinvent another wheel...
