geoff_bland new poster Registered: 16/08/2000 Posts: 17	Just installed 2 60GB drives following Rob's instructions. Worked first time & now I'm the proud owner of a 111GB (according to Emplode) Empeg. Let's start downloading.... I now have a spare 18GB drive - IBM Travelstar that was in my empeg - anyone want it as a 2nd drive? I also have a 2GB Hitatchi DK226A drive if anyone wants - just that little bit extra space for that CD that just doesn't quite fit. Attachments 168063-empeg_space.jpg (88 downloads)

I just added an 80 to my 30. You have me beat by 10 gig... _________________________ - FireFox31 110gig MKIIa (30+80), Eutronix lights, 32 meg stacked RAM, Filener orange gel lens, Greenlights Lit Buttons green set

The nominally 80GB drive will only give you about 74GB. 6GB in marketing jargon! Almost enough for an original Mark1. _________________________ *Paul Grzelak* 200GB with 48MB RAM, Illuminated Buttons and Digital Outputs
