Goodness, A4000 couldn't help myself

@ Anybody who knows

Is that Zorro daughter board (in the pics) a replacement for the A4000D Zorro riser or is it in fact a Zorro add-on for an A1200 mobo?

@ Robert

I have a Wizard mouse just like that, and it is great. If you don't get the disk that comes with it (some programs can use the middle button) let me know and I'll email you the DMS.

I'm just curious, haven't seen any 4000 tower other than my AT model.

CyberSCSI is a module that attaches to a Cyberstorm accelerator (you can't buy a CyberSCSI module and use it by itself). If you want to go that route, you will have to get a Cyberstorm first. And if you're going to get a Cyberstorm, you can do yourself a favour by trying to get a MK3 because it has an onboard Ultra-wide SCSI controller. You'll battle to find a Cyberstorm MK3 for sale though.
But the alternative is worse: trying to get a MK2 (which has no onboard SCSI) and then trying to find the CyberSCSI module for it. And you might find that a MK2 and a CyberSCSI module cannot be overclocked (that is how it is with mine). And the CyberSCSI is not Ultra-wide, it is Fast SCSI which is slower. So if I were you I would ask myself a little question: "How much am I willing to spend on an accelerator for my A4000?"
If you don't have a cash problem, then go for an accelerator that has an onboard SCSI (don't try to get the two components separately).
But if cash is tight, then you should get a Zorro-based SCSI controller like the Z3 Fastlane or the A4091.

According to the prices you are quoting (which I would like to see in reality) he can get a MKII with a SCSI module for 160 - 190 Euro, and he can get a MKIII for 200 Euro.

So at best he saves 40 Euros and at worst he saves 10 Euros (assuming he can even find a CyberSCSI module for the MKII).

Does that seem like a sensible thing for him to do, if your prices are right?

@ Lemmink

I think the prices you quoted are too low. I don't mean to say that the Cyberstorms are WORTH more, I mean to say that they get SOLD for more these days. The last 4 Cyberstorms that I saw all went for more than $400 on ebay (one of those was a MKII).
