mdf mds files

Hi

does anyone have any experience on how to get mdf ( there also seems to be another accompanying smaller file with the extension mds ) files to open or mount on a mac.???? they contain some akai format samples that i would really like to get to. i tried mounting with toast and extracting with cdxtract but no luck.

thanks

Mac OS X (10.5.6)

the thing is that they are files. its not a disk. they were sent to me and i dont know anything about them. i think its a format made by alcohol 120 so not a mac format. in my 1st post i mentions toast.

Also, iv never had much luck with the exs 's akai convert thingi. i tried it a few times and went back to cdxtract which i love coz 1stly, i love akai format and 2ndly, with cdxtract i can convert akai to kontakt to exs etc....i find it very powerful in organizing my sample libraries...... now if only i could work out this mdf thing!!!!!
