About this product
The NEC CDR-510 CD-ROM Reader is an internal 50-pin SCSI caddy drive, designed for desktop use in systems supporting this interface. This used unit, confirmed to be tested and working, reads CD-ROMs and is capable of writing CD-R discs. It comes in a beige color, typical of its era, and connects via a SCSI interface. It's suitable for retro computing enthusiasts or those needing to access data from older CD formats on compatible hardware.
Our take
For retro computing projects or specific industrial applications, this NEC CDR-510 CD-ROM reader is a functional piece of kit. It's an internal SCSI caddy drive, meaning you'll need the proper internal bay and a SCSI controller in your system. The ability to both read CD-ROMs and write CD-Rs is useful for its age, providing some versatility. As a used item, the beige color and potential cosmetic wear are expected, but the 'tested and working' status is reassuring. Just be sure your system has the 50-pin SCSI interface and a caddy for the discs.
