| | Posted: | | | | What is a Century CD Storage Unit?
Do you mean a DVD multi-disk player? DVDP isn't designed to play movies though I recall a plug-in being developed that may do so. |

| | Posted: | | | | $400 a unit to hold 100 disc? It would be cheaper to buy a Sony DVP-CX995V 400 disc changer

you can stack them just need to buy a cable to connect them together.Not sure how many you can stack but at least 3 or 4.
You get 3x the space for same price. | | | | Last edited: by Randall_Lind |

| | Posted: | | | | That one doesn't have RS232 port.
However, the ES Series DVD/SACD/CD 400 Disc Changer does. Costs a wee bit more though.

| | Posted: | | | | The $400 was for the multi-disc DVD player, not just the storage unit. |
