A my friend has given to me a E-mu e6400 sampler without internal scsi hard disk, know you say that compatible hard disk to buy for this sampler?
It must have from 4gb or 9gb becouse the OS is the 3.0Bb.
Thank you.

Hey possible that nobody knows that hard disK to advise to me?

Do you know how many pins the scsi port in the E6400 has? Probably 50, or less likely, 68. So, choose a drive with the same no. of pins, to avoid messing about with adapters. 80 pins is definitely a no no.
Then you need a SCSI ribbon cable : is it already installed in the sampler, along with the HD mounting kit? If so, count the pins! (See above.)
From my experience with AKAI recorders , I'd say just buy a cheap, 2nd hand scsi drive on Ebay. SCSI drives have a longer life cycle than IDE drives, so 2nd hand is fine.
I'd assume if you got a drive bigger than 9gb then it wouldn't matter, as the EMU will only see 9gb, so disk size is not a pb.
Second hand scsi disks under 20gb are very cheap : I know, as I have several!

Just to add : with SCSI, it's more likely CD-ROM drives that will give you compatibility pbs than SCSI HDs, in my experience with both AKAI and EMU.
