Ehm, from the looks on The Big Book it doesn´t seem to be a scsi harddrive. Is that correct ???

I assume you could mount a Z2 scsi controller in it, the kind of half sized Zorro card without space to mount a hd ...

But then you would need a turboboard like a Viper520 or so  :-o

In the past I had an A2000 for a short time and it had an A2630 turboboard with 4 Mb Ram and the Chip was 1 Mb. I added a CV64/3D just to check out how far it would go, replaced the kick 2.0 by a 3.1 and installed OS3.9. It worked for sure, but very slowly, especially the gfx came up  slow  :boohoo: Maybe if you get 2 Mb Chip that it might work a lot faster  :-? But 2 Mb Chip on an A1000  :-?
