I meant just to test, I plugged the power into the McDisk then connected the SCSI2SD card via 50-pin SCSI cable to the McDisk just to see if it would pass on the power. It did. But then when I connected EVERYTHING (using the multi-connector SCSI cable - meaning McDisk, SCSI2SD, and internal SCSI all going to the SCSI board) it no longer appeared powered.
Yes I have Vailixi. I'm not too worried about getting it set up right once it's powered. I was just confused about the power. I did a really quick format with the MPC so I might format it again once I have the power situation solved and will follow your guildelines. I think I formatted something like 32 8MB partitions on the disk or something like that. I know only "A"/hybrid will be available by putting the SD card in my Mac (via SD reader).
Do you have any idea why 2 wires would be snipped on the power cable? And do I need all 4 wires going to the SCSI2SD? Trying to figure out whether I have to just buy an entirely new cable (floppy 4-pin to 4-pin Molex) and solder it onto the MPC board or not. Thank you.
