Technical questions for the MPC2000xl and the MPC2000

Whats good folks?

I just swiched from a MV-8000 to the MPC 2000xl and I was wondering what is the biggest SCSI hard drive that the 2000xl can read?? I've heard it was 9 GB's.....

My MV-8000 had a 40 gig hard drive so im used to having my sound library and samples all on one drive. I need to know if I can connect a SCSI hard drive with just as much storage space as the MV-8000.

Ok. Can someone explain daisy chaining to me then? Im going to need more storage space....

And I agree. It was a downgrade but I needed the money to buy my Fantom G8. The XL was given to me.....

SCSI allows you to connect up to 7 drives in what is called a daisy-chain. That just means you can attach cables from one drive to the next and each drive is set to its own SCSI ID number between 0 and 7. In your sampler, you select which SCSI ID number you want to save and load with.
