I previously used a Supra28 and SupraRAM with 2MB but now I use an MTec 020/14 and 882/20 with 4MB, it's not that much of a speed difference between the two but I prefer an internal solution and both are great additions to any vanilla A500.

For more speed benchmarks I suggest checking out Amiga Hardware Database.

From what do you boot the system?  Did you find compatible HD interfaces?


I use an Apollo500... it's a sucky controller but it's the only one I've found to be compatible with the MTec so far, with I could use an internal solution or my GVP500HD8+ but no. :/

Just found out my AlfaPower also works with the MTec... my A500 happily autoconfigured the fastmem both on the Mtec and in the AlfaPower for a total of 8MB and disk is currently formatting however it's painfully slow. ;)
