Hello,

I obtained a A500 lately, and I am wondering what is the best Harddrive solution for this system?

I think the best will be GVP A530.
You receive in one package SCSI controller, up to 8MB Fast Ram & MC 68030 Accelerator Card.
 
If you want only a harddrive, look for either a GVP A500 HD+/HD8+ or a Commodore A590 (make sure it has rev.7 Roms). The GVP A530 is a very cool thing, but it's usually pretty expensive...

Or wait until the ACA500 from Individual Computers becomes available. This new board will use a CF card as harddrive, plus it has some extra RAM, and a 14MHz 68000 CPU...
 
Yes, thank you for your reply, I think the ACA500 looks promising, should be available this year. :-)
