Emax

Sorry, I didn't ask for the link to try and out bid you, I have 2 Emax racks...

I just wanted to see if there was any info in the auction, as Ted said the serial #s won't tell you a lot.
I don't know how rare the Rev A non-SCSI upgradeable Emax Is are.  They might be very rare, Ted knows his stuff.  Both of the Emax racks I bought, however, were Rev A boards.  
I had to buy a separate board to upgrade.

Which, if I get this Emax and it works out I will be selling with the working SCSI drive (external) full of sounds after some creative re-sampling of course.
