I believe that not even the SS1000E can use the second megabyte.
The SC2000 has two independent XDBus which use one megabyte each,
but the SS1000E is just an SS1000 with the XDBus at 50MHz instead
of 40MHz. I may be wrong here, but I believe this is the case.

My SS1000E simply has eight normal 1Mb SM61s in. (If anyone wants
to send me eight SM81-2s, I'm quite happy to test them out.) ;)

On a related note, does anyone have a rack-mounting kit for a
SS1000 for sale/trade?
