Akai S1000 / S1100 samplers

Thanks for the input David.
But I actually want to have a SCSI hard disk built inside and see if anyone has any experience with that. 
And I wanted to know that, if this is done, if it is possible to automatically load samples from this drive on startup (just as it loads a floppy when it's in the floppy drive at start-up). People with an external hard disk probably know the answer to this too.
 
Everything has to be compact and as much "plug-and-play" as possible, so I don't want to have external storage devices attached to the S1100, and I want to perform as little manual operations as possible in a live situation.
 
Wouldn't it be feasible to build in a fan on the power-transformer?
BTW, my S1100 is loaded with 32Mb (or so they told me, I'll have to check that).
 
You're right, It's probably best to leave the display alone (if it isn't broken, don't fix it)

Regards,
Franky

BUY A 100 MEG ZIP DRIVE ON E-BAY.
SCSI THAT TO YOUR 1100.
HOPE YOUR 1100 IS LOADED WITH 32MEGS.

THE POWER TRANFORMER DOES GET VERY HOT SO GIVE IT
