You could jumper your GVP to different memory config and then test every memory sims individually. Have you checked that jumpers are right places? http://amiga.resource.cx/exp/impact500mk2

True, it is really easy to convert it to get power from A500. Could day that HD8+ has build in support for it.

You can also get rid of fan, because old SCSI drives get really hot, SD2SCSI not.

It would be really difficult to find a accelerator wich would work with GVP HD8+, because it uses DMA.
