Hey,
For the past weeks I've read about replacing the old floppy drive with an internally installed SCSI2SD v5.1. I decided to do this for the convenience and to give me some peace of mind.
During the research I have found that there seems to be no comprehensive instructions for this particular install in the MPC3000. The guides I found were either for other machines or did not include all info. A lot of scattered info and answers here and there but not a single all-in-one -type article was found. Regarding the reported compatibility issues with the 3k, I want to make sure to do this by the book. Looking for complete parts list, instructions and possibly photos. Already searched high and low from all kinds of forums, codesrc etc. to no avail.
If there are such instructions, any pointers in finding them would be greatly appreciated. If none exist, then that is the case. I couldn't ask anyone to compile such instructions, but if someone is up for it, I really hope it'd be stickied or added to the 3k FAQ/Bible some day. I see a lot of potential for this to be helpful to others as well considering the aging floppies and drives.
Thanks in advance!
