@Robert17:

You are probably better of using the builtin A4000 IDE-controller than the Oktagon. This because the Oktagon is a Zorro2-card which uses DMA to transfer data and in a Zorro3-machine it will do its transfers to/from chip-mem resulting in rather poor performance. Though if you put in an A2000 it will perform very well.

The motherboard accepts four single-sided 4MB 72-pin SIMMS for a total of 16MB fastmem. I think the access-time should be atleast 70ns.

Btw, dont forget to check the clock-battery for leakage when you get it.

@Framiga, Brian:

You two are a fun bunch ;=). You are both arguing that it's the Mikronik riserboard, whilst telling the other one he is wrong ;=).

Party on dudes!

@Framiga:

I definately agree that you didn't say that exact sentence, but you have to agree that with the way you answered, you were more than implying that he was wrong.

You both seem like very nice blokes so there should be no need to argue more about this, especially as the reason for the argument is misunderstanding from both sides from the very beginning.
