    So I was kind of curious after Yakumo got his so I went ahead and bought a broken one just to see the insides:

    [​IMG]

    Main Saturn board at the bottom + it's combined with the scsi ports that connect to the cd changer. Also a seagate hard drive and a NEC cdrom controller.

    Network board.

    Another sega board, prob a sound board.

    [​IMG]

    Video out + in board

    Main denon sound out and in board.


    The problem with the system is it just says LOAD forever, I dunno what is wrong with it, but if anyone wants to take a crack at it they are welcome to!

    If it just says load forever then it's probably the harddrive that's dead.

    I could do sure, but how would I do that? My PC has SATA connections for the Hard Drives in it.

    I'm pretty sure it says 837-11014. I zoomed in on the full size image to get a better look and it seemed to be more of a 0 than a 8 to me.

    So I was able to rip the hard drive, I will try to post the contents soon. Can the hard drive still be bad if I can still rip it?

    The unit has an insane amount of processers, having 6 in all as well as two DSPs...

    Uh... why? It just runs standard Saturn games, doesn't it? Why does it need so many processors?

    You're saying it could record video? I don't remember hearing about that.

    It can't record video. It downloads video from the network and plays it back. Just like the Dreamcast Karaoke system did.
