SCSI to IDE - IDE HD in A590?

[Speelgoedmannetje]

Can I use this in my A590?

It'll probably do, but given the price for smaller (few gigs) SCSI HDD I'd prefer native SCSI, transfer speed will be limited to A590 speed (maybe 2 MB/s?). You should be aware that you'll need 7.0 ROMs for >1 GB drives.

I wish I could find some older SCSI harddisks... :-/
500 megabytes will be quite sufficient for my old A500..

In addition to the 7720UW, I've used the ARS-2000FU in my GVP A530 with no issues, just plug and play. So my guess is it should work. (Just an FYI -- The 7720UW didn't fit in the case very well, so you might have a similar issue with your A590. The 2000FU is perfect, though.)

ROMs on the A590, that is, I guess?
