please refrain from using capitals, (one fo the unspoken rules of forums)

and there are some guides on here that can recommend the right ones, though I'm sure you will either require a scsi or ide card reader for your mpc.

My drive is a SCSI, but I would recommend you get an ide/atapi drive. They seem to have a lot less problems on the install, no SCSI errors ect.

Check the links that me an nanoloop posted, you can find ide drives there.

If you currently have the floppy drive you will have to modify the power supply (see the images in my singature link). If you have an internal zip, you qdo not have to make this modification.
