The Iomega Rev is sold as an alternative to a tape drive for use in 
backup situations. As such whether OS/2 drivers will recognise it via 
the USB 2.0 connection is secondary to whether any OS/2 backup software 
supports it. If it looks like the old exchangable optical disks of a few 
years ago, it might, but then again it might not.

If it simply looks and works like an external USB 2.0 Drive, then you 
may be able to simply address it as a "very large" floppy drive as with 
Iomega Zip and Jaz drives.

Details of this drive can be found at:

Looking in the questions section at: 
https://iomega-na-en.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/iomega_na_en.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=15218&p_created=1087427164&p_sid=9YHWk-wh&p_lva=&p_sp=cF9zcmNoPSZwX3NvcnRfYnk9JnBfZ3JpZHNvcnQ9JnBfcm93X2NudD0xODImcF9wcm9kX2x2bDE9NjY5JnBfcHJvZF9sdmwyPTY3MCZwX3BhZ2U9MQ**&p_li=

Confirms it can use UDF in which case it may appear to OS/2 or 
eComstation as a very large DVD-RW drive.

Good luck

Cheers/2
