Got an Apollo 68060 +SCSI module. (...can it be split up?)

[Doppie1200]

Hi,

Tomorrow I'm going to have a look at someone's Apollo 68060 board because I'm maybe buying it from him. It has a SCSI and harddrive aswell. I'm really not interested in the SCSI stuff. IDE suits me fine.

What you think? Can I split it up and sell the module and harddisk on to someone else? If so, what will it go for (money wise)?

Thanks.

Im going to buy it anyway. But this hobby is getting expensive. And I really don't need the SCSI. What are the benefits anyway. I', happy with my 4G 2.5inch IDE. But if a SCSI->IDE converter can be used to connect it and it give's me a huge speed boost I might go for it.

Ok it sucks badly as I read above. But I was looking for an 060 and that's what I'll get. I think I'll sell the SCSI drive and, if possible, the SCSI module.

Thanks alot everybody I know more about it now. Software pulled SCSI makes no sense at all. I'll stick to my IDE laptop harddisk.

So I got the 68060 Expantion. He demonstrated the thing using his amiga which I got to take home with me for "free". Anyway he wasn't even using the scsi module himself. He had a 1Gig on the IDE which he removed.

So now I have an Apollo 060@50Mhz (that he had clocked 66Mhz but I put the jumper back where it belongs) and 32MB ram on it. A SCSI module to spare since I have not one SCSI device and a very badly yellowed A1200.

He even gave me a book (in german) about amiga hardware. So I have some translation to do :lol: since I dont speak german.

We'll thanks for all the responses I think I'm going to play around with the newly obtained horsepower.
