Alternate Hard Drives

2001-11-03 by John Silveria

I had E-mu replace my Miniscribe drive with a Seagate drive back in 1990, unfortunately 
at the time I was very technically uninformed and I never thought to find out what 
Seagate drive it was. My Emax unit was from Seagate, they had one for developing the 
internal SCSI for the unit and they provided a new drive when the Miniscribe failed. This 
drive was slower than the Miniscribe, but it lasted for the 8 years I had the unit and as 
far as I know still works fine for the new owner. E-mu did inform me that there was a 
40Mb Seagate that would work for storing banks, but not for booting the unit. That 
information could be wrong or I could have had a different Seagate drive.
