Hi,
I have an MPC 2000xl SE with OS 1.14 which I purchased around 2001. Ive used external scsi drives for storage etc since then and also a cd rom drive. Ive been thinking about purchasing a CF card reader/writer from MPC storage solutions. It requires OS 1.14 which as I said I already have. Its very expensive but I would prefer to spend the money than to tinker with the insides of my MPC especially if it involves soldering etc. It plugs in externally into the scsi port.
What I want to know is - once I write my sequences and wavs to CF can I easily transfer to my macbook pro for back up via a USB reader? Do they have to be formatted a certain way or anything like that?
I vaguely recall reading that OS1.14 utilises full memory available on CF cards but cannot transfer to computer whereas OS1.2 has card memory limitation to about 1 gig but can transfer?? ANy advice appreciated.
Cheers
