I would imagine that it depends on what filesystem you put on the card.
If you are going to use it between the Amiga and the PC you'll probably format it Fat or Fat32 which probably limits it with the current drivers for the Amiga to 137Gbytes. If there is any limit OTHER than the filesystem, it will be with the USB stack, Poseidon, and it's Mass Storage Class. But I doubt such a limit exists. This is just a guess.

Hi CFOU! I've recently bought a Subway controller & it's
great I use a Jump drive (128MB) which also accepts SD camera cards. 1GB card works fine. I also have an 80GB 2.5 Western Digital Drive attached. No probs. Poseidon comes with the Fat95 filesystem as a contribution. I've also borrowed various MP3 players with mixed results. I also use PGDIGCAM from Aminet for my camera. Cheers |

It's seems on my 030 + poseidon software loading rate on Flash card is about 150ko/second as for CDrom x1 is it normal Speed for You? I have also a conflict between some many whdload's games and poseidon (using kick1.3 mainly). it seems poseidon caus interupt problem and games freeze in general on black screen (but i can exit)... But if poseidon are not loaded all games work fine have somebody same problem??? |

Yes!....Poseidon seems to conflict with some WHDLoad games.
When I use the NOMMU option I get the black screen & have to reset. Cavemania is an example. All I do is run the Poseidon stack when I need it. (Not in the startup-sequence) Cheers |
