Akai S1000 / S1100 samplers

Frank,

What I mean by S1100HD is that it has the direct-to-disc recording option (rom/software?). I think I meant to ask if this version has the same OS as the standard S1100? If not, what would be the latest?

On another subject: I was first thinking of installing a 1gb disk in the S1100, but I discarded the project after some research (to much of a hassle). So now I'm thinking of an alternative. Since I allready have a Yamaha A5000 wich has it's own SCSI chain with an external HD and Zip-drive, I was hoping I would be able to connect the Zip-drive to the S1100 in adition to the A5K. And when I had to use the Zip with the S1100, I would just un-mount it from the A5K (and vica-verca). 

Any thoughts on this would be most appreciated :)

best. Jahn-O.
