5 Connecting Hard Disk Drives

Before connecting a hard disk drive, read through this chapter to familiarize yourself with
SCSI and how a SCSI daisy chain should be setup.

What type of hard disk?

If you don’t already have a hard disk or are thinking of buying a larger one, see the supplied
card for a listing of recommended disk drives.

Hard disk size

The following table shows approximate available recording times for various sizes of hard
disk. Available recording times are shown for all of the CBX-D5’s sampling frequencies,
and as you can see, with a higher sampling frequency – less time is available. This is
because using a high sampling frequency produces much more digital data, which means
a bigger sound file. See “Sampling frequency (REC FREQ)” on page 20 for more details
about selecting a sampling frequency.

Although it is doubtful that you will ever buy a hard disk smaller than 40MB for use with
the CBX-D5, the values below 40MB will be useful for checking the remaining record
time that is available on a hard disk that already contains some sound files.
