Drives-Need Help Badly!!!

[misscc803]

Are there any drives beside a floppy or tape drive that is 34 pin. Just out of curiousity. I have been doin research because i was told that there were 34 pin zip drives made. Can anyone confirm this? If it is true does ne one know where i can find model numbers/information for them.

Thanks
Nicole

Nope. All internal Zip drives are either 40 pin IDE or 50 pin SCSI.

Ok well i keep gettin different answers. But answer this if you can. Are there ne type of adapters. Like to change a drives pins from one to another?

Thanks

Exactly what do you want to adapt to what?

Ok i have an AKai MPC2000 and the motherboard has an 34 pin cable and a power supply for floppy only. This is attached to the board so if removed it will require soldering. Is there ne other way around to get a zip drive in it? If need be i can take some pics and post up let me know.

Thanks

If all it has is a floppy controller, all you can connect to it is a device that will work on a floppy controller and that the machine's bios can recognize.

Ok then that leads back to me asking do u know of any(ancient i know) that will work other than floppy and tape drives? If not thanks for taking the time to respond and help as much as possible as you could.
