English Amiga Board - View Single Post - Which A500 SCSI interfaces are DMA-based?

I.e. offloading the poor 68000 cpu... I know my Trumpcard 500 Pro is not DMA.

Any list of names of them somewhere? Or can you give me tips on how to recognize them by looking at PCB pics on Big Book of Amiga hardware or similar sites?

If you have one that is DMA, I'm interested in buying it, if it has fastram or ram sockets.

(ps. I guess not, but is there such a thing as DMA-based IDE interfaces?)
