Know before you buy
No, this listing is for the internal drive unit only. You will need to source compatible 1GB Jaz cartridges separately to store your data.
While it is specifically optimized for E-mu Darwin digital recorders, it uses a standard SCSI interface. It can technically be used in other legacy systems that support SCSI storage, provided you have the correct cabling and drivers.
This is a 3.5-inch internal drive. It is designed to fit into standard drive bays compatible with that size.
This unit is new-old stock, meaning it has never been used or installed in a system. It is a factory-fresh component that has been stored in its original state.
Yes, because this is an internal SCSI drive, you will need the appropriate internal SCSI ribbon cable and power connector compatible with your specific host system or recorder.
