Amiga 2000 restoration project. The GVP 2000-030 accelerator and RAM works but the HD controller apparently does not. (ROMs?). I also have a GVP 2000-HD SCSI card.* It is currently hooked to a Ricoh MO drive. The GVP FaaastPrep utility sees the MO drive but the disk itself seems to be toast. I'm going to say the controller works. The card does have autoboot ROMs. I would like to try to put a different SCSI HD on the controller.
What should I look for in a SCSI drive? What interface? Is 4GB the max capacity? I see some folks have CF SCSI interfaces.Would something like this work?
Microtech PCD-25BH, Internal SCSI PCMCIA Card Reader/Writer
If so, can it be set to be the boot drive?
Thanks for filling in any of the blanks on this (long) list of questions!
*While the Big Book calls the model 2000-HC, my PCB is labeled 2000-HD.
