Half-length Zorro II RAM
I seem to recall that a number of boards like this appeared on the market in recent years. Didn't need one at the time, but now I'm considering one. Can anyone point me to a shop that has some in stock?

You have two choices:
1) the BigRAM Plus (2019) https://icomp.de/shop-icomp/en/produ...igramplus.html https://www.amiga-shop.net/en/Amiga-...6-MB::565.html 2) ZorRAM https://amigakit.amiga.store/zorram-p-958.html The ZorRAM seems to be out of stock, so the BigRAM Plus is probably your best bet, right now. I have neither, so I am not sure if one is particularly better than the other one. Last edited by jbenam; 16 June 2022 at 21:30. |

That's what I get for not reading properly
For Zorro II: 1) ZoRAM https://www.tindie.com/products/retr...-zorro-ii-2-2/ 2) ZRAM 8 https://www.amiga-shop.net/en/Amiga-...sion::986.html https://www.vesalia.de/e_zram8.htm https://amigastore.eu/707-zram-8.html https://www.amedia-computer.com/en/r...miga-2000.html 3) ZorRAM A2000 http://amigakit.amiga.store/zorram-a...n-p-12695.html Looks like only the first one is available for order, right now. You may also want to look into the GottaGoFastRAM, even if it's not Zorro II, as it's cheaper. |

@ jbenam
Perfect, thank you for that list. I need something that can be jumpered to various amounts of RAM, so I think I'll need to wait until supplies of the ZRAM 8 are more available. |

If you're into DIY or you have someone that can build it for you, the GottaGoFastRAM2000 is another nice option:
https://github.com/LIV2/GottaGoFastRAM2000 The firmware also automagically allocates the maximum amount of RAM available, so no jumper is needed. |

@ jbenam
Far beyond my technical abilities to assemble, but thank you for the lead. |
