I originally bought this stuff to put into my Emax samplers, but these SCSI to IDE bridges would not work with the Emax, so when I recently decided to resurrect my Amiga's (they have been packed away for over 10 years) I thought I would try them in my Amiga 2000HD, the first IDE to CF adapters I tried, did not work, so I tried some other ones I had, and they worked fine!
The Amiga is now setup with 2x 4 gig compact flash drives, a cd rom, tape drive and an 88 meg Syquest drive, it also has 2 DPS TBCII's and a PAR
card (looking for a hard drive for it).
My Video Toaster had packed it in so I bought a couple off ebay, but neither one worked, so now I have to try and get my money back from that a$$hole.
I am still looking for some other parts and pieces to get it back up to the way I had it back in the day, but I am not desperate enough to pay the exorbitant prices some people are asking for parts, so it will continue to be a work in progress for a while yet.
All-in-all, is been kinda fun (and sometimes frustrating) re-learning how to do this stuff.

Its nice to see more people popping in here lately from BC. I'm on Vancouver Island myself.
There are lots of people in Vancouver city who are Amiga fans, and even people there who fix Amigas.
For the Video Toaster cards, you might go on NewTek's forums? There's probably people there who know how to fix the cards.
BTW, did you check out
http://www.amigalounge.com ? Glen's in Edmonton, and he's recently been selling Amiga stuff from site. He had an A4000D Video Toaster system on there last weekend, but I think its sold now. He might come across more video toaster stuff, you never know, and he can test it to make sure it works, before he ships it out.
