Blizzard USB-kit: possible?!?!
« on: June 08, 2004, 10:35:14 AM »
Silly question for the hardware tekkies out there...
Would it be possible to build up an USB kit to plug upon Blizzard's internal SCSI-bus?!?! I think DCE could manage this... what do you think about?
I know, you can point out that highway/subway already exist, but I don't want to tower my A1200, so I'd like to get an USB in my original case... :-D

I don't think he is talking about a generic SCSI<->USB adapter, more like a device to fit onto the expansion connector found on the Blizzard 12x0IV boards. Anyhow, the development costs here would probably also be too much to justify making it, if it was possible at all. If it could be done it would've been damn cool, as this connector must be ? times faster than any clockport.

heh, DMA usb controller...that would have been an Amiga exclusive :-)


Now you know what I mean... :-D  :-D  :-D
