NEED HELP!!! Lost all SCSI!!

I was saving many recently found samples last night and was about 15 samples deep into saving them when all of a sudden my zip (external 250mb) starts making this weird noise and won't finish saving then my MPC2000xl says there's a disk read errror, so im thinkning i wiped out my zip disc, but when I reboot my MPC and zip and CDrom, my MPC keeps saying no SCSI device and takes mad long to even tell me that much. Did I blow my SCSI fuse? And if so, how did that happen when I wasn't connecting or disconnecting anything. And also, will that wipe out my zip disc? Cause I tried putting my zip into a PC, and it keeps saying theres no disc, but when I go to properties, the computer tells me that there is an unrecognized format zip. That's because I formatted it with my MPC instead of a PC, right? And if thats the case, do I need another MPC to check if my disc is ok? HOlla back atcha boy, cause I cant focus on anything until I know if my beats are gone or not.

That's the "click of death" I think.

I wouldn't know. I have a nice stable SCSI hard drive.

if it clicks the zip drive is dead..

Naw, I'm not worried about my zip drive, my MPC doesn't recognize any SCSI (zip or cdrom) but when it searches for a SCSI device, it takes mad long then says there's no SCSI. So I figured my SCSI fuse is blown, even though I didn't mess with any of the cables with my MPC turned on. But I'm most worried about the zip disc. I'm crazy smart and didn't have a backup disc, and I REALLY hope my MPC didn't corrupt my zip disc, the drive I couldn't care less about. If this has ever happened to anyone, let me know if your disc was OK afterwards.

I think the disk is dead too. I'm not sure though. Use the search. This has been brought up so many times.

Normally I would search before I asked such rudimentry questions, but I got no PC and am on my phone typing this shtuff, so I can do a very efficient search. If someone could holla at me and post up the thread, I'll gladly peep it out

Peace1
