I currently own an Amiga 2000 with a Microbotics 8-UP memory board and a Microbotics HardFrame HD controller, controlling a Quantum 80S drive. Unfortunately, the motherboard for the 2000 is Rev 6, and does not allow simultaneous operation of the memory board and the HD controller. I understand that this is a design flaw which was corrected in later versions of the mother- board. Unfortunately, I discovered this after the warranty ran out. Currently, I am running with only the HD, and letting the memory board collect dust. Recently, I've been considering purchase of the more powerful Amiga 3000. My question is: will I be able to use my memory board and disk controller on the 3000? If anyone out there can provide an answer to this, I would appreciate very much hearing from you. Many thanks in advance! Rick *=*=* A little rebellion now and then is a good thing.
