Bought an A2000HD
« on: September 09, 2015, 05:45:25 PM »
So I was able to pick up a nice clean (still white) A2000HD that has the keyboard mouse and two floppy drives as well as a 850mb SCSI drive and 1mb of ram. I got it for $375USD

Was that a decent deal and is there anything that I should look out for once I receive it?

Good to know, I have the sys info and it has ECS so must be a "newer" board
Thanks everyone.

Not to rain on your parade..
Aren't all 2000s "beige" or "tan"?
I've never seen a white (aka 4000D style) 2000.


Yes face is kind of a grey color but case and keyboard are nice and clean whitish.

Check it says ECS under display for the actual ECS chipset. Mine says DMA/Gfx: ECS Agnus - 1 Meg, but STD Denise under Display (OCS)


Yup, says ECS under Angus and Display.

Well, got the 2000HD last night and opened her up.

The battery is brand new (replaced by previous owner) so thats good and no damage to the board. It has the revision 6.2 motherboard and of course has the A2091 hard drive controller with SCSI drive installed. It also has two Chinon disc drives. Nothing else is installed so not as nice a find as the other member got.

Is there anything I need to look for in the power supply or are they usually good for a long time in this model of Amiga?

Love this forum, I've never seen a site that takes a topic so far off of where it started LOL
The USB input looks interesting in place of one of the CHINON drives.

Will any 50 pin SCSI CD rom drive work with the included SCSI controller?
