Share your knowledge on these two classic MPCs

First, sorry for my shitty english.

The floppy drive of my mpc broke some weeks ago. I've tried to clean it, only used DD Disks but it's dead anyway so I bought a Zip drive. I have an Mpc 60 version 3.10e with the Marion Scsi Update but now the damn box won't recognize the drive. It's an Iomega Zip 100, connected properly, I formatted my zip disks with the Mpc Editor Xp formater but I still get the ''Error code FF48'' after 30 seconds of hard-drive searching on ''Auto'' .... To make it short, I did everything I could find on this forum but nothing worked.

Now I'm getting quite pissed and I need to know:

A. A proper way to get the damn Zip drive to work
B. Where to get a new Floppy Drive that is 100% sure to work on my version

Thanx in advance!

check the faq about the floppy drive

on the zip, make sure the termination is on and everything is connnected properly and format the disk using the mpc and it will work
