A computer interface apparatus is selectably connectable to a USB interface or a PCMCIA interface or a parallel port interface of a computer system. In the preferred embodiment, selection is achieved simply by the user choosing the correct cable for connecting to the computer. When the correct cable is connected, the apparatus configures itself to operate with either the parallel or PCMCIA or USB port as appropriate. In one preferred embodiment, the apparatus serves as an interface between an ATAPI mass storage device and a host computer. The mass storage device may be a CD ROM drive, a hard disk drive, a floppy disk drive or a tape drive. Alternatively, the apparatus may provide a SCSI connection to the mass storage device. <IMAGE>
