Where can I get an assembled IDE68k for my A2000?

Will an IDE68k work on an A2000?

Will all your expansion slots still work?

Will the required A600 ROM cause problems on an A2000 motherboard?

I am figuring the A600 ROM won't autoconfig all your expansion cards in all the A2000 zorro slots since A600 doesn't exactly have those slots?

Does IDE68k conflict with the A2000 Video Slot?

I have utterly no idea how to answer any of those questions except to say I contacted the designer and we will see.

Actually, except for Zorro slots, A500 and A600s are very similar to the A2000.

Mika Leinonen just contacted me via e-mail.
Apparently the IDE68k should work with an A2000.
Since I have a 3.1 rom installed on my machine, it should (to the adapter) appear to be similar to an A600.
Great news, as its a lot easier to find IDE devices (then SCSI).
And the IDE68k costs less then most SCSI adapters.

Mika just got back to me with an email address I can use to send 50 eur to order an IDE68K.
If anyone else is interested I'll send it to you.
I generally don't post e-mail addresses as they seem to attract spambots.
