Akai S1000 / S1100 samplers

Hello 

I have the items mentioned in the title

I have plugged my cdrom into the back of the akai via the ib-103 and
chen i press the disk hard button and then the HDSK soft button it shows
me the options of 
Atari drive number: 0
SCSI Drive ID: 5
S1000 SCSI ID: 6
SCSI Drive sector size: 512b or 1kb

so it is seeing something........

however whenever i try to load anything from the disk it says drive not
ready and the lights on the cdrom flicker...... 
I have a kid nepro cd in the drive 

any ideas ?
