Emax

Ditto on just replacing the drive...
As far as the memory disks, I'm not sure if they are formatted in a way
that can be copied easily if at all.
When I had a music store install my memory (and I tried to run the
disks)the disks alone did not do the job. Apparently the store or I did
not do something right (?). I had to call the support line where they
walked me through some procedure to make it work (I doubt I documented
it).
