Akai S1000 / S1100 samplers

Dennis,

Welcome to the group.
When you're good at scsi, maybe you can help us!

1.There is only place for an internal floppy. Maybe you can replace
that with an internal ZIP. Look at earlier messages about this. By
taking away your floppy you loose the possibility to store  OS updates
etc..

2. Please read the documents you find in the links and files section -
especially these about hard drives and scsi. 520 Mb is the maximum
that is recognized, but you can use bigger HD's.

3. The S1100 has a built in scsi card. Many of these cards have been
damaged because of hot plugging cables. Find replacement cards
manufacturers in the links section.

4. We have no manual specific for the S1100, but the one for the S1000
will do. Look in the files section.

5. Some of us tried to install an internal HD - but not without
problems. Look at the messages on that.

Regards

Frank
