IDE on A500?
« on: September 24, 2007, 07:24:56 PM »
I saw this in another thread and wanted to know, what device would one need to hook an IDE hard drive to an A500?
 
What would the size limitations be?

I think the only difference (and correct me if I'm wrong)

Is that the 2.05 version has the A600s IDE device driver in it and the 2.04 doesn't..

I'd say I'm better off trying to squeeze a larger SCSI hard drive into my Trumpcard500.

If I try to build my own IDE interface, bad things will happen. Of course i won't notice anything is wrong until smoke's pouring out of my A500.
