Technical questions for the MPC2000xl and the MPC2000

be careful because the mpc doesnt handle partitions bigger than 500mb very well, and when you partition be careful if you put that disk in windows because apparently( never tried it but) windows will delete ALL the partitions and their files after the first one....so partition small and dont use windows(unless its been fixed, check it out).

also ive always said if you got 20 100mb disks, one of them may die, but if one 2Gb disk dies, thats everything in one hit....but....then again..you can back that up on one disk instead of twenty..

i had a jaz hooked up to mine, but it stopped working i changed cables and it still didn't work so i assume it's the drive....install an internal 250mb zip drive
