I would like to know what other people's experiance has been with the
MicroBiotics Starboard 2 for the Amiga 500.  I am considering this expander
first with the idea of expanding my memory to about 2 or 3 megs, and then
when I have more cash I will purchase the SCSI module and buy a hard drive.
What have other's success been with this product?  How does the SCSI module
stack up with other controllers?  Is it FFS compatible?
Any comments or suggestions would be very appreciated.  I am considering
this option because I cannot afford a hard drive right now, but I can
afford one in the summer.  I do currently have enough money for some
memory expansion, and I would really like to exapand my machine in as little
pieces as possible.
Thanks in advance for you help!
