Technical questions for the MPC2000xl and the MPC2000
By grusl Wed Jul 01, 2015 1:26 pm
Hey,
theres a guy selling a MPC 2000 XL with original floppy drive inside the MPC and an internal 250MB Zip Drive from a PC. He says he can't test if the Zip Drive is working with the MPC cause he's missing the power cable to use with MPC.

Is it possible to use any 250MB Zip drive from PC with the MPC 2000 XL with a akai power cable?
And if where can i buy those power cable without a drive?

Greetings

If you are good at soldering you can splice the +5VDC red wire and black negative wire with a bigger female molex power connector onto the original AKAI floppy power cable. I've done this plenty of times.
