Your welcome. Hit up www.scsi4samplers if you ever need a cable or want to upgrade to a multicard reader.

you can´t format 250MB zips with your MPC3000; always use 100MB zips.

ZIP 100 carts can BE "FAST FORMATTED" in a SCSI ZIP250 by using the "FAST FORMAT" command in operating system 3.16.

The MPC3000 does not have full support for MO DRIVES and their DISKS.

Better to get another ZIP drive or a SCSI CARD READER.
