@ peterpiper, I've tested two Samsung SFD-321B drives. Didn't had a clue I tested two identical drives, until you've asked me. You think this is the problem?
The ribbon cable I used had the same twist as in this picture I found on internet: https://i.stack.imgur.com/VYByP.png
I see there are also ribbon cables with 34 pins and no twist. What does the MPC use??
Kind regards!
EDIT: read on the internet that the twist forces a drive to be A:\, with no twist it is B:\. Don't think the Akai OS will bother?
How many pins is your ribbon cable and how many pins in your floppy. If it's 34 pin, place it in 34 pin IDE adapter on the MPC's mother board. The one you have with the blue arrow.
