Re: Is there a way to avoid a Sanyo Drive in a SS externally ?
You might get more help if you change the SS acronym. I think you mean Sega Saturn. Also I guess you mean how to identify externally what drive is inside? Not sure on that one.
Why not a Sanyo? JVC seems the most common.

The Sega Saturn video game console features a double speed CD-ROM drive manufactured by JVC-Victor (some models may have been manufactured by Hitachi or Sanyo). The drive has a transfer rate of 320 KB/s, and a 512 KB data cache.

I am going to assume that you are asking because you are looking to add a modchip to the Saturn. IIRC, only Model 2s were made with the Sanyo drive, and then, only some of them. Therefore, if you were to buy a Model 1, you would avoid the Sanyo, but also get the model that is harder to mod. Aside from that, no clue.
