I believe Indivision AGA has been designed in a way that can be fitted on an A1200 with FastATA. Mediator is irelevant as it occupies a different place on the motherboard so, yes, you may have FastATA, Indivision AGA and Mediator with whatever PCI cards you put on working together just fine.

@NovaCoder

If you check this photo http://www.siliconsonic.de/news/Indivision_AGA_mounted.jpg you can see that Indivision AGA occupies a different chip than FastATA (in the picture it's, I think, the IDE express chip, which occupies the same chip as Fast ATA - Gayle isn't it?). I also think that Jens has specifically stated that his scandoubler can be fitted along with a fastata and similar solutions. You will be needing ROM risers though.

You're correct about the output, games that bang the hardware directly (most games, that is) will output to the scandoubler, RTG will output to Voodoo. So, as suggested above, you may have a monitor switch or a monitor that accepts 2 inputs at the same time with a built-in switch.

About the raiser:

1. You may only use one raiser (usually Elbox recommends 2) and be able to fit indivision by the looks of it.

2. Even if you do use 2, the Mediator will work, my A1200 is the working proof of it (as 1 raiser wasn't enough for the BVision to fit), Mediator is slightly tilted, but it works fine.
