On my own A600, i use a compactflash pcmcia reader with 128 MB card, a squirrel SCSI, a LAN card, a Wifi card. This PCMCIA slot is much usefull :-)

The floppy drive is compatible but may not physically fit.

@mfilos:

Your A600 seems close to mine but you have a mtec board?
How much do you get in Sysinfo?

Mine got an Apollo 630@40Mhz with FPU and 32 Mo FAST and makes it at 7746 Dhrystones. I have too a 10GB hardrive and of course the 1 Meg ChipRAM + clock expansion.

I think my A600 is better than the one at www.amiga600.de except i don't have usb (but no need for it) :)

My Apollo 630 is perfectly stable for hours with the same kind of fan arrengement as seen in amiga600.de. I have too another fan on the 68030 itself.
However it is a bit noisy.

This accelerator is a pure marvel to me, i am very happy with it :-)


As for booting on CF, of course it is possible over IDE, it should be possible too over PCMCIA but the driver that everyone us with the CF-PCMCIA Adaptater is not made for that.

@mfilos

You get so much Dhrystones in sysinfo?
Weird! You can't outperform your fellow Amidude who have the same board, and that's too much compared to my 40Mhz.
What is your version of Sysinfo? And what is your kickstart?
