The whole point of having a "big box" amiga
are the nice SCSI options!
In a 1200 I would probably rather have the
"powerflyer" over the internal IDE, since
CPU usage is still around 80-99% with
the stock IDE anyway. But IMO the lack of
DMA transfers is a serious drawback for an
expensive controller.
-edit-
Best bet for non-DMA IDE controller on the 1200
is the "IDE Fix Express". Around 5mb/s
and only about 30 euro. This would be nice
for a compact flash to IDE adapter and
32x flash card (4 mb/s) to install your
boot partition on...quick 4 second boots,
and all other partitions/drives on Blizzard SCSI.
