Budha in an A4000D
« on: January 10, 2008, 07:19:51 PM »
So in the qwest to make the A4000 run better, I am looking into the possibility of buying a BUDHA IDE contoller.  Does anyone use one of these things?  I'd like to know if they are any good or not.  Thank you in advance.

I've got a Catweasel S-class ZII IDE controller and a scsi card in my A4000, of course scsi is the best solution but ide works fine and you can use a lot of ide components and if it has floppy controller: 3 1/2 and 5 1/4 FDD  PC units can be attached and read a lot of disks like C64 programs!

If you have scsi buy a yamaha scsi-ide adapter on eBay. If you want better speed buy a FastATA Z3. Buddha won't give you much extra speed.

I have one.

What I like about it is that you have the ability to use 3.5" and 2.5" hard drives as you have both types of headers available and you have the A1200 clock port built in should you wish to add other expansions.

I thought it was well worth the money.

Hello,

I just purchased a Buddha and in an A4000T it
lets me use IDE again. The original A4000 standard IDE
is buggy and does not boot right away. This
boots normally like the scsi.
