Now that the rest of the pc world is going to SATA, we get ide for our amigas?
Why waste time and money, make a card for the newest tech.
This reminds me of the dead Voodoo cards.
Come on guys get into the 21st century!!!


It is not a waste of money.  I've had a Buddha for years and it is an extremely handy piece of kit for connecting cheap hard drives, CD/DVD drives, Zip Drives, etc to your big box Amiga.

What on Earth is the point of connecting a SATA drive to a stock A2000 with a 7MHz CPU and 1MB of RAM?  IDE will do very nicely thank you and 50 Euros is a bargain for this small market.
A2000, A3000, 2 x A1200T, A1200, A4000Tower & Mediator, CD32, VIC-20, C64, C128, C128D, PET 8032, Minimig & ARM, C-One, FPGA Arcade... and AmigaOne X1000.
