Nope, no HD controller on the one in the image, just a 030 turbo board with 4 MB fast mem connected to the CPU socket and the Z2 slot for the Z2 memory card.

SO, you were testing to see if it would work all disassembled? Maybe like if a person would still be alive if all their parts were strewn about?  :idea:

I did not have any more ISA slots to hack together that day and I was impatient (and I have six A500)  :lol:

but whyyy? I know its hard to find that 86-pin edge connector, but it sure is possible. I think Conrad had them.
at least you could hack two other connector to make one.

Thanks,

I really like some PS2 modders who route cables in perfect round arches and in different colors. It is almost like art.

Just a couple of hours...  it took a long time to strip them and pre-solder the ends. But it was fun  :-)
