Check for scsi in my mpc 60...

Hi,
I just purchased an mpc 60 mk1.I read faq on roger linn site on how to check if scsi is present or not but when I press disk button, on voice number 8 I read "Copy a disk".
My os version is 2.02
How may I do?
Please help me...

I believe you need OS 3. something to be able to use SCSI.
Therefore if you only have OS 2.02, the SCSI board likely won't have been fitted.

^^^ sometimes people put dummy DB25 connection to make it look like scsi is installed.

On start up it should say "Searching for SCSI device".

2.02 of the OS has no support for SCSI devices.
2.14 ( RARE ) had support for some SCSI devices.

2.14 was the OS upgrade that first worked with the MPC60 SCSI card when it became available.

If your MPC60 is installed with an OS lower than 2.14 then it is highly unlikely to have the SCSI board present.

The current OS 3.10 has support for many SCSI devices and, the MPC60 MARION SYSTEMS SCSI CARD.

Looks like you will need to purchase the 3.10 OS upgrade and the MPC60 MARION SYSTEMS SCSI CARD for your MPC60.

Ok thanks a lot Rohan.
Last question.When I turn on my mpc I hear a slight noise in the background continuously.
Is it normal?I own a mpc 2000 and makes no background noise

If it's a high pitched whine, it's either the inverter or the EL foil resonating. Make sure the EL foil is securely screwed down at the LCD.

Yes it is.I'm sorry but I don't understand what do you mean for EL foil.What is it?

The Electro Luminescent foil that is used as the backlight behind the LCD panel. It's slid between the circuit board and the panel on the LCD screen.
