For sale this adaptor which allows you to connect a Zorro-II device to the sidecar port of your Amiga 500 or 500+, allowing the use of RAM cards, IDE controllers, SCSI controllers graphics cards and so on. It is known to work with:

A2058 Zorro RAM card
A2091 RAM / SCSI controller
Buddha Catweasel Z2 IDE controller
GBAP II++ graphics card
ZZ9000 graphics/network/USB combo card
Multiface 3 Card
A590 hard drive/RAM sidecar

An optional power connector is provided on the board to allow additional power for power-hungry devices. This must be from the same PSU that powers the Amiga. It is rarely required however.

Please read the instructions attached.

I am asking 40€ plus shipping (Paypal F&F)

Thanks

Declaring interest.

can you confirm this allows you to still connect a side car?

Maybe @Hirsch @Szmn and @AwakeningStar may help with that.
I have only used it along with an Ashcom Addax memory sidecar.

Edit: read troubleshooting 3rd dot. ACA500+ is working but maybe not with an accelerator on it. Depends on autoconfig or DMA clashes of the device you are going to use.

In theory the side car should work with this adapter. I've still a project pending to populate an A500+ with an E-Matrix 530, a GBAPII++, this gem of an adapter and a 3D-printed side car case. Unfortunately, time is the limiting factor for me. (First step will be recapping the A500+.) I can give an update here once I succeed with the project, but don't expect it too soon.
 
Adapter arrived done some minor testing to see if will play with my side car and looks good so far

it does make the miggy a bit to long for my desk but once I win the lottery and build my super man cave it will fit perfectly 😆 😆 😆
