AppleCD 300
Accessories1993Rare
Apple's first double-speed (300 KB/s) CD-ROM drive in an external SCSI enclosure. The jump to 2x speed was significant for multimedia software and video playback of the era, as CD-ROM titles rapidly expanded in complexity and single-speed drives were becoming a bottleneck.
