Re: A question about upgrading and potential with Emax II.

2008-08-19 by gadgetfiddler

you can temporarily use a ds/dd disk for the os, but you'll need hd 
disks for samples. you can copy the os to the ds/dd disk with a common 
pc floppy drive and emxp if you cover one of the holes with tape. the 
emax 2 does have the internal connection and power supply for a 
harddrive. i don't know if the drives you have are compatible, but they 
probably are. you'll just have to try them and find out.
