Make sure microSD card is now plugged into your computer (e.g. Download latest 圆8000 hard drive image from the 圆8000 FTP site (search for 圆8000v4.zip) Verified working with an old 1GB card as wellġ) Create Hard Drive image on micro SD card: ![]() Verified working with an 8GB card that was purchased at same time as SCSI2SD You will require a microUSB cable to program the SCSI2SD device in Windows NOT REQUIRED - SCSI2SD will get power from X68000 The 3' SCSI cable is a SCSI-1 to DB-25 pin connector used by a lot of old Apple computers. The MC-50 to CN-50 adapter is a SCSI-2 to SCS-1 converter. When searching for above cables, keep the following in mind. You can use a single cable or in my case I went with an MC-50 male to CN-50 female converter and then used a standard CN-50 to DB-25 pin SCSI-1 cable (25 pin cable is male) You need a way to go from MC-50 to the 25 pin SCSI adapter. It is pin to pin direct pinout of the standard CN-50 / original SCSI connector, just smaller size. My X68K has a SCSI-2 external Centronics (MC-50) connector. SCSI-2 X68K system (I own the X68000 compact Red Zone edition) (optional): 3D printed case for the 2 units 50 pin to DB-25 pin SCSI adapter (purchase at same time as SCSI2SD) The guide is almost the same except SCSI2SD setup is different based on what X68000 you are using. I wrote a similar guide for the original X68000 / tower. NOTE: This guide is for the X68000 compact / Red Zone. NOTE: Consider this the up-to-date version of this document: ![]() Some systems don't even support internal HD without a lot of hacking (Compact, Red Zone, etc.) My goal here is to have a working external solution as I have multiple X68K and would be easier to move the device between them. Keep in mind that my setup is unique to me and might not work for you. The following information is correct as of December 2017. ![]()
