I have a couple of the below readers and my experience is that OS 1.14 of the
MPC2000XL does not support them. Reason is that most of the readers are IDE
and 1.14 does not support IDE drives. But the MPC2000XL does support ATAPI
devices and the most commonly used one is the ATAPI Zip Drive. Some of the
below manufacturers do make ATAPI readers and since they are a relatively new
item, I have not had a chance to test any.

However, I think the MCD is an IISDMC, but I do not recall the actual
manufacturer, but many retailers use the same model number. IISDMC is ATAPI
compliant so it should operate in the MPC2000XL. Since the IISDMC is not
terribly hard to find, I see little reason to hunt down other models. Just in
case you have some other model, or can get one cheaper, there are a few things
to look out for:
1) Fully compatible with ATAPI
2) Adopts native driver
3) Avoid anything that has drivers (MagicRam quotes "Device drivers for ....").

It has been said that there is an update to 1.14 to support the drive, but I
have not been able to confirm this myself. If so, I think I have this OS
already, and strangely it is nearly two years old.

Ik surfde dit op het net mbt Microtech:

Are there any special requirements for my MPC2000XL in order to use the Internal Solid-State Drive?

The only requirement is that your MPC must be running operating system version 1.14 and not version 1.2. The reason for this is that the SSD, like any other MPC SCSI storage device with a capacity larger than 1GB, uses partitions and for some reason, Akai decided to remove the partitioning capability from os version 1.2. Because of this, any MPC2000XL that is running os version 1.2 is limited to only using 1GB of any SCSI media. In order to use all of the storage capability of the SSD, you'll need to have os version 1.14 installed in your MPC2000XL. If you need help installing 1.14 into your MPC, just let us now and we can help you. We have the install files available on floppy disks and zip disks
here.

OS 1.14 gebruiken houdt dus in dat je grotere flash cards dan 1gb erin kan proppen???
Heeft iemand hier ervaring mee?
