Akai S1000 / S1100 samplers

Hello All,

I know this thread is almost a year old but I too ran into errors trying to use the direct-to-
disk recording feature of the Akai S1100 to Zip Disk. Upon arming the take , the unit 
displays the ambiguous message "HARDWARE CHANGE NEEDED FOR DD OPERATION" and 
does not attempt the recording. Has anyone verifed that simply using a non-removable 
SCSI disk fixes this problem?
