Come on guys, with 32GB and possibly larger SD Card who needs HDDs? And well if you really must use a HDD get the expansion board and hook up an external one, or even a thumbstick.

To be honest all I need is 6GB for KillerGorilla's collection + CD ISO support for T-Zero. Thats all!

=D

What kind of price do you have in mind TheDaddy for the final case?

Can you make the 5.25" slot laptop style CD ROM drive slot?

Well I would live without a CD slot to be honest...

No idea... I have yet to see a picture of a fully populated final version of Arcade FPGA :)

Thanks for the picture =)

I would have no use for the serial port myself :) And I agree 100% with the DVD/CD/HDD point of view.

To be honest I don't see the point for making a case for a Replay upgraded with Zorro slots and all that. The board is Mini ITX case standard so theoretically it would fit into ITX cases if you want all that =)

One more thing, at the moment (I think) the interest for cases is low because there are VERY FEW people out there owning a Replay. Maybe once it comes readily available I am sure interest for cases will go up a couple of gears!

I'd say just make a case which fits the board with the expansion =).

The size with of such case with or without the expansion would most probably be the same anyway.

I think Replay is better, but to be fair, MikeJ should have the last word on this, no?

Edit: It says "Replay" on the board.

Just wondering... to what Amiga equivalent does an Arcade FPGA (Unexpanded) equal to?

I would imagine:

Amiga 1200 (AGA Support)
64MB RAM
CPU '30/50 <==== Not sure?
Hard Disk (Via HDF)
4 floppy drives <==== Not sure?

Anything else?
