NEC CDRom Drive

I was attempting to use an NEC CDR-210 (circa Feb. 1994) with an
Alphaworkstation 200. However, the CDRom is not showing up when I type
"show dev" from the ">>>" prompt. The drive says that jumpers 1-3 are for
the ID and that 4-6 are "usually off." I've tried all 6 jumper combinations
for the ID and also all 6 for the others (I thought that one combination
might be for termination). But the drive continued to not show up. I've
also installed a second SCSI card so that the drive was on its own bus and
there was no difference.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to where I could possibly find a
firmware package for this drive? (This is a 2-speed drive and came from an
external CD Case for a Mac.)

Thanks,

John Losey
