scsi to motherboard ??

hey all, excuse my inexperience, only got my 2000xl this week, still pretty lame with all the terminologies, just wondering if i can hook up the mpc to the motherboard on my pc through scsi, or do i need a scsi card. Cheers.

I never tried that one myself, can't say what would happen good or bad. Now if you have a external scsi zip drive then I would advise you to get the scsi card. This would make transfering and editing your samples, song data and pgm files a breeze. I copped my scsi card from
http://www.jdwscsiforsamplers.com I only paid $25 total and instalation is a breeze. As long as you got the drivers that come with the scsi zip drive it's only a 10-15min process from start to finish!

cheers bloke, i didnt think the motherboard could handle it. ill get on to a scsi card.
i got me mpc secondhand with external zip drive how do i access the drivers for the scsi zip, if i cant any sugestions where to find them. thanx again.

If you didn't get a CD ROM with your zip drive when youy bought it go to the manufactures(IOMEGA) website and you should be able to download it from there. As for the scsi cable it's the exact same cable you currently use with your zip drive now. Once set up you will see the zip drive icon on your My computer screen. You may need to format your zips though.
