Emax

As told by other members the Syquest cartridges I refered to would not work with an 
Emax SE HD. I must have been under the impression you were using an Emax II. 
Syquest was the largest removable media drive company before Iomega ran them out of 
business with the cheaper (in more than just cost) Zip drives. They made among other 
things the removable media drives E-mu sold as accessories to their samplers. All of my 
library are on Syquest Ez-135 and EZ-Flyer 230 drives. Hence why that is my preferred 
way of trading.
