Doubting that E-mu today will you with your question, maybe ask these
guys: http://www.eprelectronics.com/

Btw. saw at least 2 Emax sold on ebay over the years, with sellers
claiming (and showing the items with replaced floppy drives) that the
floppy drive coming from Atari ST will work with Emax. It looked shi..
I remember (in addition the drive is white-grey), I have those
auction-pics saved (maybe whole screenshots), but would take me ages
to find, sorry mate. Again, second hand information I cannot confirm
working. Maybe someone can help you out here.

you can use almost any ordinary pc floppy drive, with an easy to do 
modification.

Thanks for your answer. What modification are you thinking about?
jumper settings?

Yeah, all of our drives are new drives.  We don't sell refurbs & we include a 30-day replacement warranty.  Hope this helps... let us know if we can do anything else for you.

yeas, it works perfect
just look in the bottom board of the floopy and find DS0 DS1 points, 
and with a solder,  change the ID from 1 to 0. that's all

at least, you can use your emax without problems until you get the 
nice full height floppy drive. i wish to get one in Argentina, but 
the shipping would be too expensive
