Hi
No you don't have to have a drive connected. the SCSI line just have to be terminated. If not the Emax will freeze up.
I have no internal harddrive. My harddrive and ZIP 100 are external and if I choose not to power up my external drives the Emax will after a while (approx. 20 sec.) boot up on the floppy drive.
Best regards
Brian

No, I got rid of the drive because It was dead. I guess you do have
to have a drive connected.
Thanks
