Thanks for the Link the downloads are still active.

Thanks for the feedback Kronos users, you have made me not wish to do anything at all to my K2 apart from play with it, no point in upgrading the SSD because it makes little difference to boot times, this thing makes some Beautiful sounds though, sometimes I just go "wow" that sounds so nice.

So in effect the SSD speed is set in stone and cannot be improved upon?

Thats the same make off SSD as the K1, interesting that Korg have chosen Toshiba as the SSD Vendor, also interesting that the Samsung SSD you installed didn't make that much of a difference to boot times?

Thanks for the info, did you happen to notice what make of SSD is already installed in the K2?

Anyone confirm that the SSD is an Intel Brand in the K2, also I know its easier to simply place the new drive as a slave but I want to be able to boot from the new drive hopefully to boost boot time speed, have any of you cloned your drives this will be far easier than doing the whole reinstall and ...

Korg left a spare power connector in the Kronos just for the purpose of adding a new ssd and also the bracket to except the extra drive you might expect them to have made the process less messy to add a new ssd?

Thats all I am saying

GregC I did actually begin to read the threads out there about this subject most of them seem to refer to the Kronos 1, I think this came with a Toshiba 62gb SSD installed, without dismantling the K2 I want to find out what is installed I know its 60gb rather than 62gb so possibly a different make ...

I am just wondering what SSD is inside the Kronos 2 if anyone has upgraded the SSD to a bigger faster model, I want to move the current 60gb ssd into a slave position and clone the drive to a new larger ssd, which drives are you installing and what are your boot up speeds like after the uograde?

I am so pleased that I found the solution so quickly and hopefully this thread will come in useful to someone else, if its happened once then it could happen again.

I decided to give the K2 a bit of a clean and polish I placed it under a bright halogen light to clean it properly that's when I noticed this tiny shiny thing stuck in the lower right hand corner of the screen https://flic.kr/p/TtGyjb I had to press down onto the screen corner slightly to release it ...

jones The seller and I actually rebooted the K2 three times to try to get the screen to respond without success last week when I was originally going to buy it off him. Odd thing happened just now though on first powering up the K2 the Touchscreen is now working perfectly, it responds all over the ...

GregC Yes having some form of internal diagnostic test would have been less of a lottery, Iv'e repaired several MS2000 synths with the MPU to DSP error and even they have a simple self test function by holding the Mod Key and Patch Key 3 together then turn the synth on, you would have thought the ...

Everything to do with the OS installation seems to be dependent upon the Touch screen working, Korg have it seems not included a Key option to reset the operating system, I am picking the keyboard up later this evening will post back here with my findings?

GregC The Kronos boots up to the Set List screen and the scroll wheel moves the highlighter around the screen, pressing the global key button brings up another screen but obviously nothing can be pressed, we were trying to get to the Touchscreen calibration, one thing I recall the seller mentioning ...
