Need CD burner for 2000

Hi jimbo60640 ,

So, you wanna burn Amiga CD-Rs, well first make sure that your "beloved cherished old faithful Amiga" is up to spec.  You will need the following items installed in your Amiga 2000 (Toaster) computer before you can successfully record files onto a CD-R disc:  a 68040 or 68060 board, at least 16 megs of fast ram, a very fast hard drive (7200 RPM or faster with at least a 512k buffer), and a SLOW CD-RW drive (2X to 8X), and CD burning software.  I recommend MakeCD.  Also, I recommend that you use the 3" Mini CD-Rs and NOT the 5" CD-Rs for recording Amiga software onto.  That's what I use, it works great.     :-D

Hi Effy,

Don't agree on that. A 68030 will do just fine to start with, a 68040 is not required for this.

That is true, but with a 68030 board you could only burn CD-Rs at 2X, maybe 4X if your lucky.     :-P

Hi Dr_Righteous,

Most A2000 systems came with the GVP HC+8 card,

You are wrong about that.  Most Amiga 2000 systems came with Commodore's A2091 board and a Quantum 40 meg or 50 meg hard drive.     :roll:
