If you install a scsi2sd card into your Akai https://amigakit.amiga.store/product_info.php?products_id=1264 which is cheaper than a zip drive. Then it is possible to convert the iso files and load them onto the scsi partitions of the SD card.
Here is a tutorial on how to do it.
The loading times are almost instant with the sampler connected to the pc via a scis cable.
If you need more information about the scsi2sd card install, then take a look at the other videos Paul has posted on his youtube channel.
Another bit of software that might come in useful is the CDXtract for dealing with the samples on an iso disk, Chris has posted this in another thread.
