What do you mean a year from now??
I already got 1000+ voices on a SD card for the SDHxC.. lol..
So nice to leave the huge box of floppies behind.
I'm going to document my instal when it's 100% done to make it easier for others.

I feel your pain.  All that old Mac stuff did my head in.� In a year from now I am sure someone will have well over 1000 voices on a SDCard and I will follow,  I will have turned my old Mac's into a fish tank.� That's all they're good for at this point in my opinion.

Good luck.� I hope you figure out a solution.� Way too fiddly for my tastes to work with.� I envy the guys who pulled this off.� But I'll just wait myself for the HxC.

Mike, thanks for your reply.

I've tried all ID's on the CD drive. Do you know if there is any way to set/change SCSI ID settings on the Mac or are those "firmly" assigned?

A couple of months ago I moved my studio and yesterday I finally tried to set it all up again and now the Classic won't boot when the CD-Drive SCSI connector is attached! I get the question mark on the Mac's screen. When I remove the SCSI plug on the Mac it will boot up normally. I tried all SCSI ID settings on the drive and also have a SCSI termination plug plugged into the 2nd SCSI terminal on the drive. I verified the Extensions folder and the CD-driver is still there.
