    I have a messy shop to clean up. I hate to throw anything away. (As my wife will tell you!) But I have probably 30-40 CD Roms that were taken out of CF-28/29 caddys when I upgraded them to DVD R/Ws.

    I think everything has value which is why I haven't thrown these away. Most are 10 years old but they all work. I'd like to get rid of them in bulk. If someone wants them all they'd probably have to pay $25 for shipping or so for UPS ground. If someone else ROW wants them 'd have to weigh them and get back to you with a price.

    These DO NOT have caddies! They are just bare CD Roms.

    Hey Rick,
    If no one else expresses interest I'd gladly pay $25 shipping for those old but good CD-ROMs. I've got a few dead caddies, and more than a few CF-28 parts to get working ....... :D

    If you are in the US, I can send you 1 or 2 for $8 shipped (covers my cost). Please note these are just the inside CD-ROM units, you will need to put them in Panasonic caddies to use in a Toughbook. PM me if interested.
