Re: [emax] Burning an Emax Cd

2004-01-05 by John Silveria

An Emax wouldn't be able to use a CD-ROM drive and I don't think it would work if you 
put it in a SCSI chain with a PC, I think it would lock-up. If you have the Zip mod done to 
your Emax you could probably make an image of that via your PC. 

It is possible to make a CD image of an Emax II drive. You just need to put it in a SCSI 
chain with a computer that has software that will make an image (sector by sector) I'm 
not sure Nero supports this. The closest mode I saw in my version of Nero was the HD 
Backup which makes an image of an entire HD that can be used to reimage your hard 
drive and have it be bootable again. I know there use to be some freeware/shareware 
programs that could make blind images of Emax II drives via a PC, but I don't have 
copies of the messages anymore. We discussed this about 7 years ago. So the 
messages may still be archived. Search Google maybe they are floating around, make 
sure to use Google's Newsgroup archive as well.  I know you have to be very careful 
most Windows platforms will ruin the Emax II drive by writing information to them if they 
detect the drive there at boot up or shut down.
