What up Lee! Good to see another Evanstonian up in here!

What MPC you got? 2K or 2KXL? And... do you want and internal or external Zip drive?
Since you said you had a Hard drive hooked up to it, here is info on external: You'll need a HD50 to DB25 Scsi cable for a 2KXL or a Db25 to DB25 for the Straight 2K to hook up an External Zip drive.

Most external SCSI Zips I've seen have a DB25 Scsi port on them.


The 2KXL has a 50 pin HD50 (SCSI II) Scsi port.

The 2K has a 25 pin DB25 (RS-232) Scsi port.

I hope this helps.
