irrespective I'll still take it because I might add a CD Drive later and poke the cable out the side of the 600

Haha - thought you would post something after I said that
I would actually BUT after putting in the ACA630 I'm not sure I can fit a slim line into the case unless removing the floppy and modifying the case to accommodate it. It's for another time though - the buffer will be of use when I get round to doing it and also it may or may not speed up read / writes to the CF (Mfilos is going to check that out maybe) but I can't see how it won't speed it up somewhat at least.

I seriously doubt that a slim CD/DVD-ROM can be actually fit after ACA630. Haven't measured it yet... but I don't believe that the height of the passive heatsink leaves space for CD/DVD-ROM's backplate.
Here are the pics mate
Plugs right into the IDE header, I'll just quickly check it fits ok in my A600...
PM me if interested.

maybe Amigakit can add it as a service if you manage it :-D

Cool - do you mean IDEFIX software FOL or device dependant drivers?

I have done quite enough mods to my beloved miggies. I don't doubt that removing the heatsink or trying other stuff WON'T take you there... it's just looking difficult without that. Try and see! :-D
(If you check from my picture bellow, you'll see that the space (height) is indeed minimal (without the custom PicoPSU in the way though lol)
