What's the easiest way to expand the memory on the Emax 2 so that I can use
more sounds at one time?

Is it possible to boot from the Zip drive?

I installed an internal HD on my Emax II and they noise it makes is
pretty loud, So I want to remove it and just use a zip drive I have.

Does anyone in the group know of HD model that is quiet?


thanks
