Thanks for the help, just to say the sampler is connected to the zip via scsi, parallel port is just the type of zip drive. I'm pretty sure its the right type to use with akai samplers as i know someone else that has the same set-up but they have never experienced problems like this, anyway i shall try installing the system software and see what happens. Thanks again, Olivaffair

HI, sorry to say that but i had the same problem with my S3000. and you must change the SCSI Card in your sampler ! because to connect an parallel port on an SCSI port cause damages in your sampler!( i received the same message: "waiting for hard disk ready")Your scsi port is defect. You will buy an Iomega Zip SCSI port for the next times! ;-)
bye. jon

Hi... I too have the same problem with my s3000xl. It seems that the scsi port is very sensitive to plugging things in and out.
I have heard different solutions to this problem. My dealer told me that if you plug in the zip drive again in the correct way it should read it again... but what is that correct way?
Some zip drives have two parallel ports on the back so you can use the zip in a chain between both your sampler and your mac or pc... if you do this you have to set a different scsi id for each piece of hardware (computer, zip drive, sampler). Maybe only one of the ports works with the sampler?
Ive had my sampler for nearly two years but have rarely used it because of lack of memory and zip drive. I'm trying to sort it all out at the moment - I have some memory coming in the post but I would really like to get this zip going. If anyone has discovered anything new then please post back!
I'm off to see if I can find a replacement scsi card...
Patrick
