Re: MFX3+ and Jaz problem

2007-07-12 by horiprod

Hi Tim.

I have an MFX3+, as well as a bunch of older MFXs and CMIs, and I've 
never had much luck with Jaz drives. Do yourself (and wife) a favour 
and just use an external SCSI hard drive. You can pick them up on Ebay 
for a few dollars. When a Fairlight "sees" a drive, it's an extremely 
low-level detection, on the lines of "there's a SCSI device ID2 
attached", it says nothing about having the correct format.

Good luck!
