and how i can tranfer samples from my pc into the sampler?
wot is the best way?
do i need a dedicated drive for it? sounds like a good idea...
either feeding the sounds in thru cds, or sending them off my pc?
if sum1 can gimme a quik rundown that wud b toppa top!
also if anyone recommends any decent sample cds to buy? there are heaps on ebay, pretty cheap too, time to get a few more samples at da same time aiiiii!

Ive been thinking about the best possible setup for me would be something like this:
SCSI card - Transfer samples to and from your computer, very importent!
IDE Harddrive - cheap, good place to store banks and samples, but buy one 15 gigs or under
SCSI Harddrive - something no bigger then 600megs though. Id use this to burn whole banks and presets off the IDE Harddrive. Sorta like making your own emu sample cds
SCSI CD-Rom - Reads sample cds, very cheap of ebay, saves your CD-R from heavy use
SCSI CD-R - Burn emu formated cds
With this youd be able to fully backup all your samples, plus more importently you coul;d back up your patches (fully mapped, looped etc.)
plus read sample cds and comunicate with the computer =)
