Wow. I remember back in the day this was THE most desirable bit of kit there was, Amiga or otherwise. Great work!

![]() Just attached A530 to my 500 and everything works great! Obviously can't boot from it as there is no HDD inside but powers up fine and the fan works too! ![]() |

I would be happy with just a cheap Amiga A590 for my A500, the GVP 530 is just way to pricey here in the US.
Out of curiosity what good is an 030 in an Amiga 500 with only 2MB of extra RAM? |
