So, I've started some initial browsing for some modern hard drive solutions for an A2000.  I have an A2091 board with 2M ram in my 2000 already, but the drive is painfully slow to boot.  It is also barely 40MB in size.  I have browsed the BBOAH for IDE cards, better SCSI cards, but I would like a simple and not too radically expensive solution.

Anyone have a good solution?  Should I just look for a better SCSI board than the 2091 (mine has rev 6.6 ROMS and a rev4 WD), or an IDE board (where I can then use CF/IDE adapters)?


I think a Buddah Card would be your best bet:

I had one in my A2000 and it was great. I think Amikit has them.

Buddha is EOL and neither Vesalia or AmigaKit carry them.  It does seem like a great solution though!


It says TBA on the Amikit page. I would email them if I was looking.
