I don't have a schematic for the S10, but I just wanted to post this 
message to express my encouragement at what you're attempting!!!  If 
you manage to get some results from what you're doing, be sure to let 
me know - or better yet, just post it on this list.  I would really 
love to upgrade my S10 for use with 3.5 floppy discs.  Why the hell 
did they come up with those stupid Quick (as if) Discs in the first 
place?!?  I love my S10 - sure, it's an obsolete, underpowered piece 
of crapola, but (a) it's my favorite for creating quick 'n' dirty, 
grungy sounding drum loops and sampling electric guitar power chords 
for that "obviously sampled" sound, and (b) there are actually some 
halfway decent samples floating around the 'net for the silly thing...
