I've installed a Spirit HDA 506 interface on my Amiga 1000. It now works
properly, but I had to send it back to the company twice. Both times they took
MUCH longer than they said they would to get around to looking at it.

Now I've had a compatability problem with my interface and my Mini Megs. They
are at MAST getting a "diode conversion" they said will take care of the
problem. My Mini-Megs are one of the first they made (#138) and I have had no
problems with them up until this compatability thing.

Two questions: 1) Has anyone else had problems with Spirit in terms of
customer support, especially in relation to the HDA-506 Hard Drive interface?
And, 2) Has anyone experienced problems with memory expansions on the end of a
bus pass-through not working?

I'm interested in the Mini-Megs especially, but also would like to know if
this is a common problem with pass-throughs / memory expansions. 

Thanks!
