QUESTION FOR ROHAN OR MPC 3000LE ABOUT VAILIX. 3.50 AND PCD

WAT UP ROHAN GOT A QUESTION FOR YOU OR MPC 3000LE I FOUND A SUPPLIER WHO'S GOT SOME PCD-47B IN STOCK . WHAT I WANT KNOW IS WITH THE VAILIXI. 3.50 UPGRADE ISTALLED WOULD THE PCD-47B WORK OR WOLUD IT BE MORE HEADACHES THAN THE AVERAGE PERSON WANT TO DEAL WITH. ALSO IF IT CAN WORK WITH SET UP CAN YOU GIVE A DETAILED BREAK OF HOW TO INSTALL IT AND WHAT PARTS WOULD BE NEEDED. CAUSED IV'E LOOKED HI AND LOW FOR A PCD- 25 FOUND ONE BUT WASN'T WILLING TO PAY 500.00 US FOR IT NOW THAT I KNOW HOW MUCH THEY REALLY COST. THEN I FOUND A PCD -15 BUT IT ENDED UP NOT WORKING SO IF YOU KNOW ANY OTHER CARDS READERS THAT WORK CAN YOU GIVE US LIST OF WICH ONES WILL WORK WITH THE VALIXI. 3.50 UPGRADE . CAUSE EXTERNAL SCSI HARD DRIVES AND ZIPS AIN'T CUTTIN IT ANYMORE.

one word for this post "YIKES"

A PCD-47B with proper firmware should work but I have heard of it not working.

thanks for the reply what do you use for storing your stuff. also i found a magneto optical scsi drive .one of the members uses it i think on an mpc 60 from what i know it does do work with the mpc 3000 from reading some info that was posted on the site.

Plenty of suppliers still sell the PCD-47B.

They were made in higher quantities from what I understand.

They were also manufactured in several different countries over the life of SCM/INTERMART/MICROTECH.

Depends if you're an average person or not.

PCD-47B's; depending on firmware revisions, jumper settings ... CAN be a bit awkward to set up.

Vailixi is, however; equipped to slow down the SCSI transfer speed to a level that can be accommodated by the PCD-47B.

So ... yes, PCD-47B's with Vailixi 3.50 do work with a little bit of fiddling around.

Fitting of card readers has been covered in this forum MANY times.

Installation of a PCD-47B where "parts needed" is concerned is no different to:

The PCD-47B will need to be "configured" though.

What they are worth depends largely on whether they will do the job for you.

When first issued, PCD25 units were over $1800.00.

Some PCD-15 units need to operate in the single sector transfer mode.

Vailixi 3.50 accommodates these units where OS's up to and including 3.16 do not.

Indeed.

PCD-47B will need:

1: Latest firmware.
2: Jumper setting to disable the non CF-MEDIA slots. ( so the only slot that will be active is the CF-MEDIA slot )

You will need to use high grade CF-MEDIA cards.

Vailixi will need to be set to run in SINGLE SECTOR TRANSFER mode.

You will learn a lot from performing the installation your self.
