It actually allows you to read HD disks ? If so it might be worth looking
for a commercial cable to allow the new drive to be used without soldering
and recommending it as an unofficial upgrade for the brave :)

I've got a late issue (bought at end of line) MPX1Z (U1) MarkIIXG
disklavier which has a DB51XG inside it (located on the right hand side
underneath near the strings). I guess this is just slight tweaks on the
DB50XG, and maybe consumes less power / generates a bit less noise than
the DB50XG.

Does anyone know whats in the MarkIII series (eg DU1A)? I would be
interested to know what got changed sound generator wise!

Cheers,

James
