Since Tudor times I have been using an atari megaST (running cubase V4)for sequencing my E6400 ultra (running EOS V4.1). I used a Zip100 SCSI drive for sample/preset storage. The Zip100 drive died (probably due to breaks being too tuff, and basslines too gritty).
I thought I was being clever buying a cheap 80G PC hard drive for internal installation in my e-mu. Well, you can imagine my dismay when I discovered that not only does the connector have a tiny knob of plastic, providing the "built-in incompatibility" that bill gates so loves, but the e-mu cannot read an internal 80G drive!
I have recently obtained a "late Victorian" PC powerful enough to run Cubase VST (mainly for sequencing the ultra, but a couple 'o extra channels on the desk using VST intruments etc would be nice).
can you install an 80G PC internal hard drive in an E6400 ultra by buying the mounting kit, and upgrading the EOS to a later version?
could I put the extra drive in my late victorian PC, and transfer Emulator banks via SCSI, eliminating the need for dedicated E-mu storage? (my old laptop would deny the existence of my floppy drive if the disc contained Emulator banks)
Is there any wonder why we humans use drugs to numb the pain of conciousness?

Got a Zip100 to access old stuff, & a Jaz 2G, both off e-bay.
