USB != S-7x. Forget it. Just use the SCSI CF-Card Reader, why do you need the USB stick?
The S-7x is SCSI.
If the linked to "USB floppy drive emulator" had of worked, i'd have needed
to get the Roland OS onto a USB stick so as to boot from. The drive only uses USB memory
sticks, and I no longer have my CF-Card reader as i sold it some time ago.
The only possible internal option to investigate would be one of the internal CF-Card
drives.

Again there's still the problem of getting the OS onto a CF card. When i did have my
CF-card drive, this was easy as i just copied the OS from the S760 floppy drive to the
external CF drive and set to boot from that. Once you remove the S760 floppy drive and
replace it with an internal CF drive you're stuffed!!! (unless to use
"translator" as pointed out)
