Thanks for the replies Todd and Bob ( I'm replying to Todd here with a message to Bob to read this ). I'm glad to hear you guys are using sidecars succesfully. My Amiga 1000 has a spirit 1.5 meg board and spirit's HDA506 hard disk adaptor, So I can use this same hard disk and controller in the sidecar. Does the Sidecar use the same software as the Bridgeboard or it's own version? What kind of PC programs do you guys run? Do you have any PC cards besides the hardcards? I bought the Sidecar at a Hamfest flea market. It has no power supply, disk drive, manuals or software. The disk drive is easy and I know the power requirements for it. I figure the Sidecar needs power similar to a PC like +5, -5, +12, but I need to know what pin needs what. I think there's a power supply connector on the Amiga board too, the upper level one in the Sidecar. I would be happy to pay shipping and handling costs for copies of tech manuals. My address is: Jon Dickason 278 Elmwood Ave. Rochester, NY 14618 (716) 442-3591 Thanks for your quick replies guys, I hope to hear from you soon. "Long live the Amiga 1000 and Sidecar"
