Are modern Amiga 1500/2000 memory expansions any good
Hi all
I am looking for a memory expansion for my amiga 1500 but the only ones I see available for sale are new build ones I have seen amigakit zorro 8mb and a zram one but do they do the job I want to run a pc bridge board. I would rather buy a old school one but can't find anyone selling one so looks like modern is my only option. Many thanks |

Get one that can be configured to be 4 or 6MB if you intend to use it with a bridgeboard.

There are a couple on ebay right now. But you could also consider a GVP HC+8 and not use the SCSI or any of the SCSI controllers with RAM.

Yes there are but they are over priced and have been relisted because no one will buy them for that money. I have a budda IDE card so don't need the SCSI.

I haven't tried that.
I found an article on a similar competitor product called ZRam where users are experiencing issues with it: https://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=98531 |
