Review of my Acard ARS-2000SUP SCSI to 2.5" SATA adapter

[NorthWay]

I also have the same adapter, hooked up to my CS060 MK1 with CybSCSI.
It took me a while to get there though - I am using the 8.7 ROM version (which I don't know if is publicly available - might be identical to the MK2/3 ROM version?) with a patch to skip sub-LUN handling.

And it works. 240G of SSD storage in an Amiga is ginormous...

What drive to use? looking at:

I wouldn't touch spinning rust with a barge-pole unless I already had an SSD as my OS disk.
Now, an Amiga is probably 1000x more forgiving than other OSes, but I'm done with rattling, noisy and hot storage. I am guessing you can afford both if you have invested in an adapter like that??? Or there might be some specific reason you're looking at spinning disks (like slot space).

how big can I really go?

Oh. You should ask Olsen. I know he has written something about that somewhere. But I think it is way larger than any single drive you can get today (filesystem and driver being correct though).
