SCSI on 1st...Then when you switch on the MPC, it'l have a chat with the drive and tell it to spin up :wink:

Id say save all your work...Turn off MP then switch off drive

it still drawns power to the transformer. and keeps that annoying greenlight on. i cant have it in my room cause it looks like alien eyes staring at me in the dark and i possibly might smash it.
