You have IB-103 SCSI card in your S-1100 w/ 50-pol Centronics connector ?
You have a ext. SCSI ZIP drive w/ 25-PIN connector ?
You have the correct cable to connect the ZIP to the S-1100 and it´s working ?
You have a AKAI formatted/arranged ZIP media inserted in the ZIP-drive already ?
The default SCSI ID of S-1100 is #6 ?
The SCSI ID of the ZIP drive is a different number than #6 ?
You connect the ZIP drive to the S-1100 while the S-1100 is switched OFF, switch ZIP drive ON 1st and wait until the media is recognized by the drive,- then power up the S-1100 ?
You´re able to access the SCSI page of the S1100, see SCSI ID #6 for the sampler and ID #X for the ZIP drive ?
Your ZIP drive is terminated ?
If you checked this all and it doesn´t work and you´re a sure the same SCSI cable w/ the same drive works w/ another sampler,- then it seems your IB-103 SCSI board is defective.

Hi Rish
its a possibility i agree but i cant think what as its a pretty straight forward procedure.
i've followed the instructions laid out in the manual just in case.
i have the channels as they should and the connections as they should yet the sampler will still not recognise the drive.
to add, i've just hooked my roland sampler up and the zip drive shows up on that no problems.
like i say, i think the issue may be with the SCSI port as i cant think of anything else?
is this fixable or is it a case of finding a replacement?
Thanks
