Considering SAM440 - a few Q's...

[amigakit]

The SAM Flex has four SATA ports - no IDE

So you will need a SATA DVD drive and hard drive.

Yes any SATA DVD or DVDRW will be OK.  We use Sony, Pioneer and Samsung drives without problems in our SAM builds.  Any Radeon 9250 PCI that is 5v and 3.3v will be OK.  Dual voltage cards have two notches in the gold PCI connector on the card (there is more information in the SAM Flex manual).

OS 4.1 runs 68K apps with its built in emulator called PETUNIA.

Here is the SAM Flex user manual (see page 11 for PCI information):

The 440ep chip runs very cool- it does not even require a CPU fan at 667Mhz and 733MHz and 800Mhz speeds.
