Does Roland say what hard drives can be used with the VS?
Yes. Roland has created a “Compatible Media Guide” document (last updated in late 2001), but many Planeteers have used drives by vendors other than those listed in that document. • Planeteer “alpine_Richard” had success using a 10GB Fujitsu MHR-2010AT on his 880 V-Xpanded. • Planeteer “Loudmouth” had success using a 3.1GB Toshiba MK3003MAN. • Planeteer “FenderBender” had problems with a Toshiba MK4313MAP, which a PC store told him was the replacement drive for the Toshiba MK4309MAT. My advice…if you go with an “non-Roland-supported” drive, make sure that you can return it if it doesn’t work.
