AmigaKit SCSI2SD

[Tumbleweed]

Hi all,

I just installed a SCSI2SD from AmigaKit - v5.2 in my A3000D. Im using a Sandisk 32GB Utlra SD card with IDEFix97 and PFS3aio. What sort of transfer speeds can I expect? I realise there are lots of factors like speed of the SD Card, buffers etc but what should I be looking for as a ball park figure?

Using SCSI bench from aminet looks like I'm getting c 880; my zip 100 drive gets about 784. My IGB Jaz gets about double that.

Just want to check Ive set the SCSI2SD up properly.

Works very well as a solution when your real SCSI drive has packed up.

The SD card is 32GB - thought I needed IDEFix to get over the 8GB barrier? Ive been paying around with it and have now got three partitions. The first is 2GB and is using Fast File System. The second is also 2GB and the third is c25GB. These latter two are using PFS3aio. All seems to be working ok.

Thanks.

Cheers Matt. Im running OS3.9 with BB1 ,2 & the unofficial 3 & 4. Have ordered 3.2 with a set of Roms which should arrive sometime next week. Plan is to clean install the 3.2 roms and OS 3.2.

I was thinking of the v6 board but I heard the v5.2 was more stable for the Amiga for some reason. I have a CSMKII and the SCSI module but I am now using it in my 3000T as my A4000D died. The 3000T doesn't have the INT2 mod and Ive just had it repaired by Anthony Hoffman (Castellan on A.Org). I don't want to mess it up. The v5.2 has been working great so far and now I'm 3D printing a bracket for it to go into the A3000T second floppy slot.

Thinking on getting a couple of other 5.2 cards one for my A3000D and the other for my A2000 with GVP Hard Card.

And here it is. Installed in an old repurposed external SCSI Case sitting on top of my A3000T. Was originally a Jaz drive now its the SCSI2SD adapter housed in a 3D printed bracket.
