 First of all I must say that this kind of mod is more difficult to do since X68000 CompactXVI doesn't have an internal SCSI connector like the other models or better yet it has an internal connector which is connected by a flat cable to a small sub-board with provides external SCSI connnector. So if we want to make a completely internal mod we have to work directly on this sub-board. If you look at the second of the following pictures you can see 30 (2 rows of 15) solder pads near the SCSI connector. First of all I must say that this kind of mod is more difficult to do since X68000 CompactXVI doesn't have an internal SCSI connector like the other models or better yet it has an internal connector which is connected by a flat cable to a small sub-board with provides external SCSI connnector.

 Obviously you have to put the pin headers soldering them on the top layer of the board ( the 30 pin headers downward and the 50 ones faced up) then you have to piggyback the board on the previously installed sockets. Connect a SCSI 50 pin cable from piggyback board to SCSI to IDE adapter and then connect it to the CF to IDE adapter.
