Well I saw a neat ad.
in AMIGAWORLD for the New Supradrive 500XP
i evan called and asked a few questions.

it seems the thing is expandable to 8 Meg using more expensive chips.
and to 4 using cheap chips. (Neat idea i think...)

I also saw an ad selling the thing with 0meg/nodrive 
for $229 

Question is what kind of drive can i put in this puppie?

the supra500xp with a 20 megHD is 579. (a bit steep it seems)

well lets see 579-229 = 350 for a 20 meg HD?

so what kind of drive can i put in this?
can i put memory in WITHOUT a drive. (sounds silly)
but i really need the Memory more than i do the drive...

well any suggestions/notes is welcomed.

C-ya.
