Akai S1000 / S1100 samplers

All Akai s1000 and s1100 HD units have the hard drives attached to to the SCSI card. These cards are much bigger than the standard SCSI card. 

So installing your own HD is a bit more work but I have had great success with the i omega zip 100 SCSI drives, both internal and external.

Life is like MIDI, your either IN, OUT or THRU.

Well, to read the connection of the sampler card to match the standard should read the same but with a view to the left, part welded to the left of elements to the right placing the card vertically, as is installed.
