Go to the Amitrix site, they make a model for the A570
and one for the CDTV. I don't remember the exact name
but its easy to find on their site. I beleave they still
have the A570 SCSI adaptor available.
The abaptor works great, I had one on my A500 system.
I've since sold the whole system.
The adaptor will except a 2 1/2" harddrive mounted on
it or use the SCSI pass-thru for external drives.
My adaptor only excepted 2 1/2" SCSI drives internally
which are/were very expensive so I only had the SCSI
pass-thru connected to a SCSI tower box.
I ran my BBS on it.
It makes a nice system.

I went to the site, it's on there, but I wonder if it is still avail?  I wish there was a RAM expansion option for it, as I have a AdIDE and Novia I want to install but need more RAM.  Nice add-on though.


Well .. on my system I had a SupraRam expander (8 megs)
and a SupraTurbo 28mhz accelerator sandwitched between
the A500 and the A570 CD Rom. They're great (no problems).

If you can find a SupraRam expander that would be the
way to go.
