Hello 
I have also scored a FZ-20 tonight on ebay. I'm fairly stoked as the
owner reckons she's all working and Á+. 
I also have a FZ-1 with a dead LCD and a FZ-10 with a dead FDD.
Although my tech reckons he's close to working out Buctys FDD disk
speed change solution. (Ill post his results once he nails it.)

So I'll totally FuZed up now. Love these old beasts.

Questions.
     My next step is to find a compatible SCSI drive. Can anyone give
me an idea on what type of SCSI is compatable? The previous owner has
never used a SCSI drive so is not sure.

     I gather I need a peice of driver software to get the SCSI
working. Does anyone have this driver or know where I can get it. As
Larry said, Im happy to pay any charges etc.

     Theres an interesting video on youtube showing a guy called
Synthasy2000 using a 42meg Bernoulli Drive to change patches. Takes
five seconds by the looks of it to fully load a bank. Any else tried
this? Does a normal SCSI drive work that fast?

Any help is appreciated

Thanks
Jeremy
