ZIP to SIMM adapter for the A3000D

Status
Not open for further replies.
Looking forward to upgrading my RAM! I did have a couple questions:

1) Is there anything I should look for (or avoid) when buying a 16MB SIMM for the adapter?

2) Once the adapter is installed, do you recommend I remove my Z2 8MB expansion card? Will it hurt performance to leave it in since it's not a Z3 card?

Thanks!

Hello,

thanks for your questions! So, 1) nothing special, standard simm 72 pin from 90' are ok! Size from 4mb to 16mb or 32mb (in this last case, just 16 mb will be recognized); 2) the system work, more or less in this way (and you do not need to think about this), the fastest memory is recognized with the highest priority; then, if it is consumed, the other one will be used; if you detach the Z2 memory, you lose the last option!

Best regards
Stefano

Hi Stefano,

Your adapter is working fine in my Amiga 3000. Your instructions are elaborate and with a little care the adapter is installed in minutes. I got it installed within the first go.

Hello,

the part on sale is this

please, pay attention that there is a type of simm that is shorter, if you plan to put this adapter on the original desktop case.

I have sent a PM to amigo-mexicano.

Hello,

the adapters on sale are now two, same look! I think, they fit properly on a A3000D, if the simm is shorter (look at the picture on previouse post).
Please declare your interest, i can't wait anymore! I need to sell.

Regards
Stefano
