OK, Good Sir! You've been a lifesaver! If I'm understanding you, if this D16 requires an IDE plugin, there would be a connector for such, and I don't see one, so that's a non-issue. The attached pic you'll see the Toshiba 60G I installed earlier today. The blue arrow points to the 4 pins in...

Please see the 2 attached pics: This Hitachi 40G drive (once was installed in my D16, worked flawlessly) shows a <JUMPER> diagram indicating a PIN1 location. Those 4 pins isolated on the right of the diagram correspond to the left end of the pin array of the drive itself (with the drive's label...

OK, fellas, thanks to your posts and pics/videos, I was able to successfully reassemble my Korg D16 and a Hitachi 60G hard drive, and I'm more than reasonably certain everything is where it should be. So I plugged it in, Red Standby light on, then I pushed power button. Startup screen was as I...

First and second picture: same connector.
