What perfect timing, I've been looking for a FastATA board on ebay today. Think I'll buy one of these instead.

Still no love for the big box Amigas

Some of us have money in hand if upgrades became available. Hint, hint...

Don't forget: last year we funded (at notable expense) the production run of ZorRAM for big box Amigas. What upgrades are you referring to?


@AppleHammer
Thanks!

I think he means he would like a FastATA for A4000.

I wouldn't mind having one for mine too.

As a matter of interest and apart from maybe not physically fitting, would a FastATA1200 work in and Amiga 600 ?

We offer a SATA IDE adapter with the FastATA 1200 MKIV as a product option

I have one on my A1200 with a 2TB Sata hard disk hooked up- it works well.

I was also going to ask if you would be getting any ZIII versions in but I just looked at the prices for those and Ijust don't have the $$$ for that.

Does anyone have a rough idea of when Jens IDEFix-SATA device will be released and how it will compare speed-wise with the FastATA devices?

Depending on the time frame I might hold off on getting a FastATA and wait for the IDEFix-SATA as an one of those+SSD+Indivision MkII+Blizzard/060 would make for a dream A1200 wedge WHDLoad machine.

Not forgetting to add my currently unused HxC floppy emulator and also a Kryoflux adapter (My next purchase methinks) to complete the perfect "under the TV machine".
