Share your knowledge on these two classic MPCs

I just acquired a MPC3000 with a reader in it that seems to accommodate something much larger than a CF card. I opened the MPC and it says "mcdisk" on a couple chips, but I couldn't seem to find the matching model on Google despite finding a few mcdisk images. Is it PCMCIA?

And if so, is it just a matter of buying any PCMCIA adapter and then trying to find the Sandisk Ultra II CFs? Thanks for your help.

Does anyone have an external Spyrus Mcdisk card reader? If so, what is the polarity of the ac adapter you're using?

In the past, I've had a couple of the external units but sold them.
I don't remember the exact voltage of the power adapter tho but it's a positive tip & negative shaft power adapter.
