Make sure you have some real FAST RAM to get speed benefit. Some SCSI controllers exhibit DMA problems with the Supra Turbo.

But im gonna use it with my "Rochard 500" harddrive with 8mb ram. http://amiga.resource.cx/exp/search....chard&company= I hope this will work!! How i software combability with older software? This info i got about the cpu: 68HC000@28Mhz (with SRAM Cache) uses only 0.13watt The standard Amiga M68000 uses 1.13watt. Is there a change it could be clocked even more?

I use it with 2mb external fastram + 512K trapdoor + AR3.
I haven't found any major compatibility problems apart from badly coded trackloaders with CPU-loops don't work any more. It's also hung up my AR3 cart a couple of times. It give a nice speedboost to WB1.3, but of course nothing like my A530  If you wanted to clock it faster I think you'd be best of looking for an 020/030/040 card instead. I've never seen a plain 68K run faster than 28Mhz - but saying that maybe it's possible. @Zetr0 Not sure about A600. I'm sure you'd know more about the signals at the A500 side expansion than me
