Akai S1000 / S1100 samplers

S-1000 and S-1000PB don�t support FX cards.
If you want a FX board,- you need a S-1100.
The FX in the S-1100 are quite usable.

You cannot use RAM and FX cards of S-3000(i) in a S-1xxx series sampler.

S-1xxx series samplers accept SCSI drives up to 512MB size and MOD 
(magneto optical drive) up to 500MB / 512k clusters pre-formatted.
You can use ZIP drives also.
It�s picky on CD-ROM drives,- old Apple 2x and 4x are guaranteed to 
work,- that�s what I�m using here.

All refering to SCSI only, not SCSI II or UW and such.

AFAIK, S-1xxx series reads S-900 disks,- I�m not sure if it reads 
S-950,- check it out.
