Re: [akaiS1000S1100Samplers] Waiting for hard disk skip

2017-02-13 by Ewan Colsell

on my s1000 the ram cards had capacitors that attatched to the chassis. Mine were just wrapped onto the screws though not soldered.

Hi guys,

I've pimped out my s1100 recently with the latest OS, more ram, new backlight and a SCSI to SD.

All seems to be working perfectly but gives me a message saying waiting for hard disc skip?

I can't seem to skip it and I'm not sure what's wrong.

Looking online it seems maybe I've blown a fuse but looking at them both and they're both fine with the wire in the middle.

I'm using an 8gb micro sd card which has been formatted in FAT

My SCSI to SD isn't connected to the power either but I was told it can get power from the SCSI cable and I don't need to plug that in

Also I want to upgrade my last ram but it's soldered on with like a capacitor or something to the casing, will I have to do this with a new ram card?

Much appreciated!
