Is there a multi-CD-ROM changer for the computer?

I use the same 5 or 6 CD_ROM's all the time, and the tower is about 4 feet
away. I would buy a changer if there was one, to avoid the constant
changing of discs.

Hi,
If you have the hard disk space, how about using one of the various 'virtual
cd drive' programs? Just make images of the cd's in question and mount them
as you need them. You get much faster access too, as they are running off
the hard disk.

I bought a USB 2.0 HDD enclosure and installed a 120g HD in it and mount
several virtual cds (any that I use often at all) on it. Whenever I need to
use one, I just turn the switch on. This works very well for me and saves
digging for cds all the time. It is also nice for storing photos etc. when
on vacation and only have the laptop.
