Solid State Disk for Amiga2000?
« on: July 14, 2009, 09:42:49 AM »
Hi,
I am looking for a HD replacement for our A2000 with Blizzard 2060. The main reason for me is noise, the A2000 is very noisy... Is it worth the money? What would you recommend? What sizes are available?

regards selco

Thanks for all the replies. Actually at least half of the noise comes from the HD and it would be nice to get rid of these 50%. The fan from the PSU would be another challenge.
The solution with a CF cards seems to be nice. Are they really fast enough? Ok, the old HD is slow too, and the SCSI-controller of the Blizzard 2060 is not to fast either... I would like a sultion with a slot bracket so that the CF could be removed/exchanged easily without opening the A2000. That would allow to use/install/backup the CF from WinUAE very comfortable.
Are the differences between the different IDE <-> CF converters? Speed? Or are all equally suited for our Amigas?

The only SCSI->IDE adapters I found are from Acard and cost around 90 Euro. I was a bit surprized about this high price.
