make sure they are set to different scsi ids and you should be fine.
also be sure to have everything powered off when making/changing the connections.

i have my zip100 and scsi hd hooked up to the mpc no problem.

Also, make sure the last drive (and ONLY the last drive) has the termination set to ON (or, if no switch is present, you can buy a terminal to attach to the last item in the chain.

werd. Watch the scsi fuse, I aint done anything to mine, but I hear that it can blow real easy. Also the MPC SCSI id is ID # 6, and cannot be changed (or maybe its id 5) whatever it is, its in the manual in the rear, I'm pretty sure its six. I chain: A zip drive, apple cd300 & hard disk together and no problems at all with it.
