RetronautTech is a new Retro Computing channel on Youtube (but of course!)
https://www.youtube.com/@RetronautTech
Although not exclusively Amiga centric, it IS destined to have a LOT of Amiga content as its content creator, Chris Thomas, was an Amiga nut back in the 80s and 90s
So far videos have covered the Amiga 500, Amiga 1500/2000, and the Amiga 4000.
Upcoming videos will show the repair/restoration of an Amiga 1000, repair/restoration of an Amiga 2000 and Amiga 4000.
Please check out the channel, watch some videos, LIKE them, post comments please! and Subscribe if you like what you see!
Thanks

Just subscribed and left a comment for you 👍🏻 Very professional opening and end credit sequences. Very 2001 esq… 😉
To add to what I’ve seen on your video of the A4000 board..
You have a Buster rev 09 which can cause you issue with the bugs it has. You may want to look at upgrading that chip to a REV 11.
Or wait to see if the new Rev 13 comes out from Icomp, which Dave Haynie (one of the original Commodore A4000 engineers) is working on.
You don’t need to use 4 x 4MB simms for the 16MB FastRAM. You can use 2 x 8MB simms in banks 1 & 3.
Zorro-III RAM is slower than the onboard fast simms. Roughly 95% the speed.
A lot of the updated CPU cards can accommodate up to 128MB RAM which is faster than the FastRAM Simms.
A CD or DVD IDE drive comes in handy if you want to install some Amiga OS versions. Such as OS3.9 (CD only with a boot floppy) or the latest from Hyperion which is version 3.2 (Now upto 3.2.2.1)
Good luck with the Channel.
