Hi All!

As of today I am trialing a new service in addition to my physical HDD & CF setup service I'm not offering a digital download service where I will prep for you and delivery an Image electrically.

For this to work I will need the exact size of your CF card in bytes, as my image has to be equal or smaller than your media, I will also deliver the software (shareware version of WinImage) for you to use to load this onto your CF. Other Image writing software might work for you i.e if you are not on Windows but is untested by me.

You can see my guide here for creating your CF from my Image:

https://www.amibay.com/showthread.php?t=39231

I will upload it to my web space for you to download, a 4gb CF image is approx 2gb once compressed. Bare in mind your download limits when using this service.

As an alternative I can burn the image/s to DVD and mail them (at extra cost of course)

Currently this is only available for 4gb CF cards, if your card is too small (i.e smaller then my smallest images) I cannot help sadly.

Please see the first page for full T's and C's, it's important you can prove ownership of the OS you want me to install.

My electronic setup prices are the same as for real drives.

Thanks for reading :thumbsup:

Steve.
 
Hi!

Small update :)

I'm now offering a slightly cheaper CF HDD setup for the special price of £17.99 + P&P, these are new Maxell Branded CF's, I've tested them on my Amiga's and they seem fast & reliable. The capacity is slightly less then the Transcend ones (3.6gb available instead of 3.7gb) however still plenty of room for over 2000 games :D

The Transcend ones are still available (last few that is!) at the old price of £19.99 + P&P which as before includes basic setup.

Thanks for looking :thumbsup:

Bump!

I only have 1 Maxell CF left now after selling some with systems and PCMCIA adapters I do however have about 5 of the Transcend Cards :thumbsup:

I have a good stock of adapters and cables.

I look forward to offering more setup services to those who need it :)
 
Little bump, I'm sold out of Maxell CF's now and not buying anymore unless there is demand. I have a few Transcend 133x left at £19.99 inc basic setup, see post #1 for full terms :thumbsup:
 
Will there be CF HDD for Amiga 500?

Will there some Games and applications on them?:unsure:

If you have hardware that gives your A500 IDE then sure I can make you a CF that will work on it :thumbsup:

When the ACA500 is released then you could use a CF HDD on it easily, in the mean time you would need one of the IDE68k's or one of the SCSI Sidecar's with SCSI-IDE bridge. The former needs some soldering and the latter can work out quite expensive.

Some of the solutions currently on the used market have size limitations so you should do some research before buying.
 
Little bump, I only have a few of the 4gb 133x Transcend Cards at the moment however I can get any size/brand card by special order :thumbsup:
