Thanks for this great video ! Can you please explain what is the board sitting behind the SCSI connector, on which you connect the Zulu and ZIP ? My ESI4000 only has one scsi connector , so I had to unplug the external scsi connector. Having a flat cable with 3 connectors could do the trick, but I just wanted to understand what this board actually is .. thanks !
That board is standard, at least on the ESI-32. This is the SCSI board, which, as you noticed, is located just behind the SCSI connector. I simply took a 50pin flat cable and connected it to the board. I'm not familiar with the ESI4000 but I guess you should find a similar board
Glad to see you could work it out with your devices.
yeah! it was easy (after I figured out what was wrong :-D )

What's the benefit of the zip drive if you have the zulu
well, actually it came with the sampler as an external unit, and I decided to pt it inside. I had a bunch of old cartridges so I kept it...
the zulu and an external scsi zip can work together ?
yes, they work together, you simply need to set them on differenti SCSI channels, and connect them
