Well I bought an scsi harddrive for 20 dollers from an friend. And I follow the advice from Lampdog that I format the drive and etc.. Then I chould uploaded it the files from the zip drive. And then I witch from zipdrive and it saves on the harddrive. Then when I do the second time so I start to get this error on my mpc: "SCSI Conflict on #ID6". So i shut mpc down and then the harddrive. And after that I remove the scsi cable off, wait an minute and plug it on, start the power on the harddrive and then start up mpc with out any zipdisk on it and it start working agian. But I can do only once everytime when I save it. Or other wise it start to get this error.
