internal hardrive

(for mpc2500)

with the hitachi travelstar 80GB do I need IDE/UDMA or Serial ATA, I can't find any source of help from akai.

also does anyone know if you can use third party RAM sticks? If so which ones can you use? the official one is £100!

thanks

Thiers already been a discussion on the use of third party Ram if you use the search function. As far as the HD I believe its ATA.

When you look for the exact type numbers of the harddrives from Akai's recommended list, you will find that each one is a unique type. So you don't have to know if it's IDE or S-ATA, just find the right type. They are all 2.5" laptop drives, UDMA/IDE.

Their you go. Stilo knows...

na for the hard disk you dont need nuthing.. just insert it.. with the screws the mpc came with.. i have the same hard disk... works great..

is it possible to get replacement screws?

You could go to dealer and ask if they have any extras. If not, just go to a hardware store and buy some new ones.

i dug around and found my bag of screws

maxed out now, 80gb hd, cd drive, 128 ram, with black pads

Sick, son.
