Title: A3000 and CyberSCSI MkII
Post by: starf81 on June 10, 2007, 06:09:30 PM
Hello!

I've installed a Cyberstorm 060 MkII into my A3000 and I own also the CyberSCSI MkII (http://www.amiga-hardware.com/showhardware.cgi?HARDID=1230) module.
You know, the CyberSCSI can't mechanically fit inside the A3000 but I would know if someone knows a solution to use it... for example, a cable or an adapter.
It would be great!

Thank you for your help :-)
Alex

Regardless of the physical fit, I think you'll also need to do the famous INT_2 mod to get the electrics working.

Yes, I do. But that's not a problem, I've already modified the mainboard of my A3000.

Ah. Okay then :-)

Unfortunately I haven't got any advice for the physical placement.

Here is a picture I've taken to show how the CyberSCSI module fits into the A3000  :-(

 You can CAREFULLY dessoldering the conector's pins (only the 2 outmost lines), bend the conector and re-soldering it back.

 Problably you'll need some wires to allow the reconection.

 Simple like that.
