Get the hard drive first thing.

For midi stuff you can buy pc host cable.

As for scii zip or scii cdrw you might check out yahoo's prs forum... they were discussing that very subject a month ago.
One of the suggestions was get a usb zip for pc and a scii zip one for psr9000....since they are very cheap now.

The other option is USB Card ...that installs in psr9000. It's 120euro ...since euro and USD is same rate ... some company in Europe sells it and some people recommend it. Although I didn't get it yet.
