I have a Toshiba XM-3401TA SCSI CD ROM that I want to attach to my 386SX
based computer.  I also have a Seagate ST-02 SCSI controller.  The missing
link seems to be the driver.  Toshiba tells me I need to get the driver
from those who made the controller.  I've called Seagate (Not an 800 #) a
couple of times and get a recording stating that wait times to talk to a
"live" techie type person will be greater than 20 min.  I'm *NOT* going to
hang on a toll line for that long listening to muzak or some recording telling
me how wonderful Seagate is!
 
Anyone know where I can get a driver for this combination?

I just checked Seagate's home page (http://www.seagate.com), and after a
cursory look, didn't find any info on getting drivers.  They may have a
tech support e-mail address though.  Usually for a CD-ROM you need a 
driver for the controller in your config.sys, and Microsoft's CD-ROM
extensions (MSCDEX.EXE or something) in your autoexec.bat...the 
extensions may be included with recent versions of DOS; I don't remember.

Thank you for looking into Seagate's home page ajax!  I will check out
what is available in my DOS 6.22 directory.  I've pretty much given up
on finding a driver for this card and will look into cheap sound boards
that support the Toshiba SCSI CD ROM or a simple SCSI card that'll 
support it.  I don't need anything fancy, it being only a 2X drive.

Hey, I just tried ftp'ing to "ftp.seagate.com."  It not only exists, but
they have tons of drivers there.  I downloaded the ST-02 stuff to my
directory, so you can transfer it from there.../u/ajax/st01-02.txt and
/u/ajax/st01-02.zip.  I expect they'll have the driver you need for the
config.sys, and the mscdex.exe is the one that might be in your DOS
directory.
