The first system used for the BEMANI series, the DJ-MAIN board is a modified version of the KONAMI GX board introduced in 1994, with the main addition being the addition of an IDE hard drive used for storing audio data. Data apart from the audio is stored on EEPROM chips, making it the only system used for BEMANI games to use non-removable storage. As such, version upgrades involved removing the entire board from the arcade cabinet and replacing it with a new one, the old board could then be sent back to KONAMI to be recycled in exchange for a rebate.
