The Philips CDD2600 works fine for me (on a symbios/ncr810.) It is
autodetected by cdwrite. If you have problems writing cd's, investigate
into the controller, the wiring and termination. IIRC my CDD2600 is
jumpered to terminate the SCSI bus. You may want to change that if the
Pioneer already does that (or change the Pioneer.)
