I wish you luck with getting your one working 😀

Thanks! If it doesn't work off the bat I'll likely open it up as you did yours and poke around.

Took a bit of digging to find the drivers but this post was super helpful:

An update on the CDR-80: I'm assuming it's the Trantor T100 controller but connection to the drive on boot is inconsistent. Sometimes the host adapter isn't found, sometimes the device inquiry fails, sometimes the adapter is found yet the CD driver fails to load, sometimes the inquiry fails yet the CD drive still detects, and sometimes both the adapter and drive find each other with no problems. Even using a properly terminated cable didn't change the inconsistency. So I swapped out the Trantor CD driver for aspicd.sys and the CDR-80 accepts it so...I've ordered an Adaptec controller from 1990 and I'm *hoping* it'll resolve this issue.

Got these two Voodoo 1s for a very good price. The other is probably one of the most common V1 cards out there, Diamond Monster:

The other one is a little bit more peculiar one and I haven't bumped into one before: InnoVision 3DX5000TV. InnoVision Voodoos aren't that uncommon, but this one has TV out as an extra feature. Most of these InnoVision cards out there in the wild seem to lack the connectors and chip for TV out, so it was probably pretty much dropped at some point. Otherwise the design resembles the reference card:

I got a Banshee 😁
