yes you can fit scsi its the card fitted to the fz20

but you need a copy of the scsi floppy access software

and charlie still needs to get a good working floppy drive

the floppy emulator is cheaper than a replacement drive

  I think the FZ1/10m/20m is worth the effort the synth section sounds 
  superb,my friend used to use that all the time,the only other synth/ 
  sampler I have used which had the a similar function was the Korg 
  DSS-1 (just usiing a slider) although there are a few programs for the 
  Atari which allow you to draw a waveform as does the Roland samplers 
  and the Fairlight of course.
  I think a PPG and possibly the Kawai K5 could do additive drawing 
  using a slider too.
  I know the FZ10m could be fitted with scsi because I saw one in a 
  studio in Islington London and I asked the engineer if I could have a 
  look around the back because he was loading sounds to it from a Jaz 
  drive.
