I have successfully used 256MB on Emax 1, but there's no point to buying large media on it- as it can't use it.
Emax 2 is matter of your memory size.
If you have 2MB x 100 bank = 200MB OK
4MB x 100 =400MB, etc
So that is consideration for the media size you should buy.... Emax 2 OK up to 1GB
Also, as stated many times on the group get slow flash. Fast flash can result in HD Catalog Errors, etc

Hey Ted,
thanks for ur fast answer, actually it works! but there seem to be a limitation on the CF size, i tried to format a 512mb sandisk CF and got hardware scsi error, then i triedwith an old 128mb sandisk and this worked out very well, it loads banks incredibly fast, i have set terminator off and ID 2.it just takes ages to format the card, otherwise than this, i think a 256Mb could work in there.I have to tell you that the 128mb was formatted on an external SCSI to cf devices that i bought back in the days from SCSI for sampler on ebay, for thosewho knows those devices.has the emax a limitation on the HD size, is 512mb really too large ?Laurent—Le 11 avr. 2015 à 20:17, Ted Summers djtbs1@gmail.com [emax] <emax@yahoogroups.com> a écrit :Laurent-My understanding is that Aztec Monster SCSI to Flash drives do not work in Emax, unless the vendor has changed the firmware since last updates....If you find it works, certainly let us know.if you don't have additional SCSI device on the chain, you SHOULD have the terminate jumper on.Please review my page on SCSI here:Regards,TedOn Sat, Apr 11, 2015 at 10:38 AM, LIFELIKE laurent_ash@...

I feel stupid to ask such a question, but im about to replace the internal Quantum HD from my Emax 2 turbo, and i bought this aztec scsi to compact flash HD replacement on ebay.
Shall i terminate the HD using the jumper or is the emax II or shall i remove it ?
On the Quantum HD i see no sign of terminated jumper… so im not sure about what i should do ?
I set the id to 1, is that right, according that the Macintosh is on 0, the CDROM on 2 and the zip on 5 and terminated…
SCSI nightmare :-))
Thanks in advance for ur help!
Laurent
