Randall,
Myself, for a A500, I recommend GVP Series II HD package. I have a Quantum
52 MEG with 3 MEGS RAM. Had the unit for over a year now with not one bit
of problem. I'm sure you must have seen the ads in the magazines. Can take
up to 8 MEGS RAM, has a cooling fan, it's own power supply, external SCSI
connector. BTW you can put in a different drive if you want. You don't have
to settle on just the Quantum 52 MEG unit.
BTW…watch in the next couple of months – I was told from GVP
sales/marketing, two months – that their NEW A530 Accelerator product will
be shipping for the A500. In the same looking case as the existing
harddrive, you have 68040, up to 8 MEGS RAM, SCSI controller, Mini Slot,
external SCSI connector. I'm pretty sure you will be able to also mount
your harddrive in the same case (since its got a SCSI controller), why not.
Of course if you wanted IBM capability you can plug in their NEW 286 board
in the Mini Slot.
