Only the internal HDD is.

S-1000, S-1000HD, S-1000PB and S-1100,- all use the same SCSI card and 
that card has an internal SCSI connector in addition to the external 
Centronics-50 connector.

So, you can put a internal HDD (ideally 520MB size max) into any AKAI 
S-series sampler/ sampleplayer w/ the SCSI card built in.
You just only have to decide for the location of that drive and how to 
do it �cause there�s no special HDD mounting-kit existing.
The S-1000 HD already came w/ the drive built in, that�s all.

With latest OS, a AKAI S-1000PB has the same sample- and program editing 
features a S-1000 has,- at least I�m not aware of anything special.
I own 2 S-1100, 1 S-1000 and owned a S-1000PB which I gave to a friend 
some time ago.
IIRC, the difference was, for the S-1000PB the SCSI card was optional 
and it didn�t sample.

All my AKAI samplers use 2 eproms for OS/ firmware.
