Does anyone have any experience with the Great Vally controller/1 meg RAM advertised in the latest Amigaworld? I would like to add a ~30meg hard drive to my B2000, and I have been following the discussion of hard drives on the net, but I do not recall anything on this product. I would like to add expansion RAM, and at the current prices, I will settle for 1 meg I am interested in knowing how this RAM will work with expansion RAM to be added at that indefinite time when the prices drop again. Go Amiga says they have this unit with 1 meg RAM now, so someone out there must have one. I would be particularly interested in which drives have been used sucessfully with their unit for the B2000. (I should take this opportunity to note - per discussion of mailorder businesses - that I have tried a number, and Go Amiga rates best. I have also dealt with MCS, and have not had such bad experiences as recounted on the net. I tend to feel that you pay less there so you should expect to get less.)

Is the controller/1 meg memory expander just for the 2000? Or can it be used on the 1000? +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | James Colyer | #define LIFE (?) | AMIGA! //// | Running his 1 Meg Amiga | |---------------------------------| //// | 1000 from a Lobby (!) | | ARPA: backstro@silver.bacs. | //// |---------------------------| | indiana.edu | //// | "There is no dark side on | | USSnail: 4755 N.
