Hey, nothing like the horse's mouth. Here is what they say at
http://www.newertech.com/support/faq/docks.html

Question
I found an old SCSI MicroDock/UltraDock, why doesn't it work with my 2300?
/ I upgraded my Duo to a 2300 and now my SCSI doesn't work.

Answer
The older SCSI MicroDocks and UltraDocks are not compatible with the IDE
interface of the 2300's. If the serial number on the dock has 6 numbers
after the "P" it will not work.


I have one for sale that has seven digits in the serial number. It worked
perfectly with my now dead 2300. I sent a FS post to the list that I never
saw and nobody responded to so I am assuming that it never got sent out.
Sorry if I am repeating myself.

I will sell it for $140. In addition I have a heavy duty PB SCSI to 25pin
SCSI with the switch on it that makes it usable for SCSI disk mode, a 25pin
SCSI to 50pin SCSI adapter, a 50pin to 50pin cable, a 50pin terminater, a
Panasonic 128 MO SCSI drive with three cartridges that works flawlessly,
and a basically unused CH gamepad with an ADB connector. I will throw all
that in with the Newertech SCSI microdock for $60 if someone wants.
