Replacement Hard Disk Drive for Emax II 2212 model

Replacement Hard Disk Drive for Emax II 2212 model

2012-10-23 by Rob Mayo

Folks,

The Internal Hard Drive on the Emax II model 2212 that I recently bought, seems to be completely had it and thus needs to be replaced. What brand / size of SCSI HD would you recommend I buy and from where on the Net?


Thanks kindly in advance,



Rob.

Wouldn't get a replacement HD.
Get a Flash drive.

No moving parts to go bad.

PCD-50b
$70 approx.

Flash Drive sounds like a great idea. Where would I mount in the Emax, what brand of flash drive slot unit should I get and where on the net would I buy it from?


Thanks,



Rob.

Hi Rob
 
To make your harddrive going again you could try this somewhat unusual solution. 
 
1) Dismount the drive from the Emax II and put the drive horizontal in your hand. 
 
2) Shake the drive left and right in your hand gently approx. 10 times.
 
3) Put the drive back in your keyboard and try to see if it spins up.
 
This will hopefulle force the plate inside the drive to turn. 
 
I did this on a dead Emax harddrive yesterday and got it going.
 
Best regards
 
Brian
Denmark
