It'll include adapters for IDE-to-SCSI plus IDE drives. From then on, if any problems occur with a drive, just plop in a regular IDE drive. Make sure you've got the newest firmware installed, otherwise the IDE adapter thing won't work (and you probably would've needed it to play recent movies anyway).  |  IP: Logged Rajendran Dinesh Film Handler Posts: 27 From: chennai/ tamil nadu/ india Registered: Aug 2010 posted 11-14-2010 08:35 PM                        Chris Slycord , my friend have this 3 model scsi drive, per model 3 piece only have ,this is brand new, this 3 model scsi drive suitable for dts 6d,  |  IP: Logged Tony Bandiera Jr Film God Posts: 3067 From: Moreland Idaho Registered: Apr 2004 posted 11-14-2010 11:10 PM                     Rajendran, in any case listen to Chris, the best bet is to get the drive upgrade kit. it will solve your current issues and make it possible to easily replace drives in the future.  |  IP: Logged Bernie Anderson Jr Master Film Handler Posts: 435 From: Woodbridge, New Jersey Registered: Apr 2000 posted 11-16-2010 07:26 PM                        Without opening the DTS, is there anyway to tell if the upgrade has been done?  |  IP: Logged Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 11-16-2010 08:47 PM                     Yea... If you have the DVD upgrade you should find "DVD" on the front of the two drives someplace...  |  IP: Logged Chris Slycord Film God Posts: 2986 From: 퍼항시, 경상푹도, South Korea Registered: Mar 2007 posted 11-16-2010 08:48 PM                     If the drive you can confirm externally that it was a dvd drive, I think that would confirm it as AFAIK before the upgrade kit they had only supplied people with cdrom drives instead of dvd drives. But other than that, I see no way to tell from the front that you're using an IDE drive.  |  IP: Logged
