I need harddrives always and rarely CD-ROM drives.
You cannot burn anything on a CD RW drive w/ an AKAI sampler.
You need a compatible CD-ROM to read/load disks manufactured in AKAI format.
Best you have both and removable media for the backups.
No idea what this software you mention below does,- there´s no explanation and I wot install stuff on my machines I don´t know.
This software is written 1998,- so I doubt it´s compatible w/ Win XP,- more Win98 and 2K perhaps.
I said I´m unaware of any PC Win XP app communicating w/ AKAI S-1xxx sampler.
On the past, other apps for Macs as also older PC OS existed,- but I don´t have such a PC and OS anymore and I don´t want to.
I´ve all said,... buy the old stuff you need and work the old way.

S1100, i see the only trouble may be recording discs right for using it with tat old CD-Rom. Is that right? I have no need in SCSI harddrive in this case?
Cheers!

P.S. i just found some app for Akai old samplers, called NiceWave
http://www.nicey.com/free/nicewave.shtml
Can't check it because ASPI drver error, anyway maybe it can help to connect device via SCSI?
