 SCSI Getting started
The SCSI Bus
The Megafloppy 4.00 Standard 3.5 and Megafloppy G-800/G-
600 models, incorporate a Small Computer System Interface
software/hardware, ( SCSI, pronunced scuzzy) connector to
communicate with disk drivers and other types of SCSI devices
such as CD-ROM drivers, Syquest, jomega, and the Pioneer DRM-
X6 changer.
SCSI is a communication protocol that allows up to seven SCSI-
equipped devices to be connected to your Megafloppy 4.00 in
what is called a daisy-chain arrangement, where each devices
is connected to your Megafloppt 4.00 through another device.
The cable system or data path that connects these SCSI devices
together is reffered to as the SCSI Bus.
SCSI ID Numbers
Each SCSI device requires its own unique ID number because
thats how your Megafloppy 4.00 differentiates between SCSI
devices. It is also how SCSI devices differentiate themselves from
each other. Valid SCSI IDs are numbers 1-6. The Megafloppy 4.00
itself is considered to be a SCSI device on the bus and is
permanently assigned a SCSI ID of 7. The internal 2.5 disk driver is
IDE drive and its setting with a master IDE HD whit ID # 0.
Although you should not change the ID master of an internal drive,
you can easily change the ID of an external disk drive by rotating
the SCSI ID dial or Jumper on the back of the drive case. See your
disk drive manual for more information.
SCSI Termination.
The SCSI system requires that there be a terminator on each end of
the chain of SCSI devices ( excluding the Megafloppy, there can
be as many as seven deviceschained together). The terminator
electronically ends the SCSI device chain. Internal HD 2.5
drive is already terminated and should always remain so.Its the
terminator status of external devices that you need to be
concerned with. If you have one SCSI device ( not including the
Megafloppy) , it should be terminated. If you have two or more
SCSI devices, two should be terminated( one at each endof the
SCSI bus). Any additional devices in the middle of the chain should
have termonator removed.
Since terminator is required fir the SCSI bus to function, most
vendors ship their SCSI products whit terminators installed.
Unfortunately, damage can result if more than two terminators are
present on the SCSI bus. This is because the signal level increase in
intensity with each terminated device in the chain. Eventually, this
signal level increase can cause damage to your Megafloppy or
SCSI devices.

Note Megafloppy
*Never apply excessive force to the mechanical parts, keys or disk
drive.
*Do not position the unit near heat sources or in excessively humid
or dusy atmospheres.
*Do not subject the unit to stress during trasport or use.
*Where possibe, do not position the instrument near units that
produce interference, like radion or TV appliances, etc.
*Do not, for any reason, allow objects or kiquids of any knd to
penetrate the units casing.
*Do not use solvents to clean the outside of the instrument. Use a
soft cloth damped with water.
*Do not try to remove the units metal casing. Always call in an
expert for repairs.
*Do not remove the floppy-disk from the drive unit until the LED
indicator has gone out.
*Do not expose floppy disks to magnetic fields (magnets,
loudspeakers, televisions, etc.) or to direct sunlight.
*Regularly make back-up copies of your data on floppy disks to
avoid accidental deletion or damage and subsequent loss of the
recorded material.
What is Megafloppy?
Megafloppy is the first hard disk system in the world to store all
types of data.
Megafloppy is a standard floppy driver interface to comunicate
with IDE/ SCSI hard disk. Megafloppy works the same way as a
Juke-Box: just select the desired virtual disk number on the
Megafloppy, select the desired song avalaible in your keyboard
display and play start.
All stored settings can be saved on Megafloppy an be recalled at
any time.
All data are written on the hard disk without using floppy disks.
The Megafloppy is basically a high technology electronic product
that virtually emulates a floppy disk driver. This means that the
instrument gives the same services and has the same characteristics
of a basic disk. Any loss of time during emulation will be recuperated
by the Megafloppy formatting 1999 partitions when the first request
of the formattation of the system is made. All these partitions (also
called number of disk or Virtual Disk) are ready for use both in writing
and for reading. There is only a time loss when filling disks of various
capacity in hard disk while for reading, no time is needed for selecting
the number of the disk (up to 1999). All virtual disk are supported
whit release 5.00 Hard disk MIDI Player if the hard disk is MS-DOS
formatted.This is the most positive characteristic of the Megafloppy,
the world wide new instrument that eliminates the use of floppy disks.

Troubleshooting:
The HipPerformance disk drive is manufactured to the highest standards and is
designed to give you years of trouble-free operation.However , there will probably
be at least one occasion where you have a problem that you cannot seem to
solve.This section should be able to help you resolve any problems associated with
the disk or with the Megafloppy software.If you have tried these suggestion to no
avail, contact your dealer.
In SB subdirectory, Megafloppy dont read external hard disk, and will not start
up from the internal HD 2.5 or the External HD/CD-ROM.
This indicates that there minght be a communication problem between the disk
and the Megafloppy.Try the following remedies:
1.Examine the SCSI device setup.Make sure that every SCSI cable, terminator, and
power cord is connected properly, and there are no sharp bends in any
cables.Check for SCSI ID and termination errors. If you have external SCSI devices,
do not select in to Megafloppy SB before switching on the external devices,
and wait at least 15 seconds to let all the devices become ready before
selecting SB and SH on the Megafloppy. Check all power-on indicators,
including the green LED on all external SCSI disk drivers,to make sure all have
power.If you do not hear fan or hard disk after switching on the power to a disk
drive, check the power cord and switch.If the disk does not power up at all, see
