Just HDD and RAM expansion for A500, is there any?
Is there any simple and cheap HDD and RAM expansion project for the A500?
Without any acceleration, just IDE HDD support, and say 8 MB RAM? |

Kippers A508 fits the bill, but good luck finding that today.

Thank you all for suggestions!
But i was more thinking of recent projects, that you can build or get today? |

I can wholeheartedly recommend the aca500 its absolutely fucking fantastic. Very easy to use. Best damn thing you can buy for an amiga 500.
Its also awesome because you switch and make external gotek bootable. It would be great if someone would make something similar without the accelerator though. So it could be even cheaper and more accessible to even more people. |

Getting this kind of expansion inside of Amiga 500 is much more cleaner result. Best thing to buy are those internal 68030 accelerators like TF536. https://www.facebook.com/retrocuonline http://retrocu.xyz/index.php?route=p...6&search=Amiga I have bought Amiga stuff from Ozcan multiple times without a problem. |

Does anyone know why this isnt made anymore? It seems like a great option for A500 owners at less than a hundred pounds |
