Hi,
I currently have an Ensoniq EPS 16+ (with SCSI card) and gonna receive an AKAI S1000HD (with SCSI card too) in a few days.
Had enough with the floppies, now looking for a solid 2022 (almost 2023) solution to replace that. Not really interested by the floppy emulators, SCSI is just better in every aspect.
After a little research it seems Zulu SCSI is the better bet at the moment, does anyone have experience with that and one of those two samplers?
Unfortunately it seems that power doesn't come out of the SCSI ports on these machines so an extra source is needed, like with a Molex cable plugged to the floppy power port for instance. But I've also read that some people fried their Zulu SCSI by plugging it on the wrong one. So yea, gotta be sure. All the guides I found are for the SCSI2SD cards, but those are no longer available + they look like a pain in the d*ck to setup.
Thanks for any help.
