Multiple SCSI cards
« on: July 24, 2007, 11:25:51 PM »
I have an Amiga 2000 with a GVP G-Force 030 Combo Card which has a 68030 accelerator and an integrated SCSI adapter which my disk and CD are connected to.

I also have a GVP Series II 2000 HC+8 SCSI adapter that I used to use. I'd like to put it into my computer along with the Combo Card, but only use it for a RAM expansion. Is it possible to put this card in and just use the memory on it? I dont have any immediate plans to, but could I also use the SCSI on it as well as the SCSI on the combo card, or can Amigas only handle one SCSI adapter?

The extra RAM is the main thing I care about though ;)

Yeah I saw in the manual that you can disable autoboot. I dont know if you can completely disable the SCSI though... or if you can use both at once and if the OS sees them separately.

I think you CAN completely disable the SCSI on the Combo Card, but I think if you use a SCSI integrated on an accelerator in the CPU bus thats probably faster than a Zorro card.
