I'm afraid I don't have any further information about the old style
Hitachi hard discs as I gave all of these and controller cards to
Colin Ross before I left London. You'll also find that the discs are
next to impossible to find, which is one of the (many) reasons I
don't get involved in the earlier rev 6 machines any more. Upgraded
rev 9 machines can format and access virtually any hard drive up to 4
Gbyes, are lightning fast, AND SOUND EXACTLY THE SAME as before.
There are a huge number of other improvements and new features too,
read about them on my website at www.horizontal.co.uk I know that no-
one on these pages wants to spend money getting their old machines
upgraded, but I may be able to offer a solution: I could sell an
upgrade kit of waveform supervisor card, formatted 4 Gbyte hard disc
full of excellent sound libraries and the revision 9 software, new
manuals, full instructions and all the loose components for about GBP
1,000. However, you would have to get a very good technician to do
this, and you still might have timing problems with old 2 Mbyte RAM
cards. There are no problems with 4, 8 or 32 Mbyte cards.. I could
even include a colour graphics card (so you can use a sexy flat LCD
screen) for an extra GBP 500..


Hope this is helpful,

regards,

Peter Wielk
