Wuts up yall.
I have a SCSI internal Zip drive I want to put in my XL, but just want to know what cable to buy. I don't want to be caught buying the wrong one. Switching your XL from Floopy to Zip isn't to hard, is it? Thanks Yall

Wouldn't it be better to install internal card reader?
Very easy and quite cheap and most important thing - more reliable than zip disks.
I upgraded from floppy myself and never regret it.

yeah problem is I had a 2Xl for 5 years and had to sell. I just got one back & have hundreds of Zip Disks with Hundreds of drums, bass, etc.. on there. So I need to get Zip Again.

Are you sure it's a SCSI internal zip drive?
It would be much easier to fit an Atapi one
or buy a used external drive off ebay (maybe to transfer your files onto cf card)

it should be a 50pin internal scsi cable if it's a scsi drive.
