Ok, the IPC's audio hardware supports one channel of 8-bit audio input and
one channel of 8-bit audio output via an audio CODEC. The 8-pin miniDIN
connector adjacent to the keyboard connector on the rear panel is the
audio connector. 

The SCSI controller is a SCSI-2 controller. You can use any regular 3.5"
SCSI drive (with a 50-pin SCSI connector) in your IPC. Fast/wide SCSI
drives (with a 68-pin SCSI connector) require a special Sbus card with a
different type of SCSI controller.

The SCSI port on the back of the IPC's case can be used to connect a
type-411 peripheral box if you want to mount your drive externally (if
it's not already in one of them).

Regards,

Craig.
