- memory
- four 30 pin SIMM sockets accept 8 MB RAM
- accepts 1 or 4 MB 120 ns SIMMs
- supports 2, 4 or 8 MB configurations
- the 4 MB configuration requires four 1 MB modules, a 4 MB module is not sufficient
- fully autoconfiguring
- notes
- connects to the side expansion port
- has no passthrough connector
- stylish design matches the A500
- disable switch
- hard disk activity LED
- external power supply
- built in fan
- mini expansion slot for the optional PC emulator card
- problems may arise with the combination of A500, 8372A Agnus and an internal memory expansion with CPU or Gary adaptor - a trace has to be cut to solve the problem

- processor
- 68060 @ 50 MHz or 68040 @ 33 / 40 MHz
- can be ordered with no CPU or with a new or a recycled 68060
- memory
- four 72 pin SIMM sockets accept 128 MB RAM
- four 64 pin GVP SIMM sockets for backward compatibility
- the 72 pin sockets support 4, 8, 16 or 32 MB SIMMs, the GVP sockets support 4 or 16 MB SIMMs
- each 64 pin slot is linked directly to a 72 pin one - only one of them can be used at the same time
- cannot mix 4 or 16 MB GVP SIMMs
- cannot mix single or double sided 72 pin SIMMs
- a double sided 72 pin SIMM rules out two GVP SIMM sockets
- supports burst RAM access when SIMMs are installed in pairs
- selectable RAM access speed 60-80 ns
- Fast SCSI 2 controller
- 10 MB/s max transfer speed
- 50 pin internal header
- 50 pin external high density connector
- optional 3.5" hard disk mounting kit
- active SCSI termination can be disabled with jumper
- the tekscsi2.device is not NSD compliant, it autoboots FFS partitions only - it looks for filesystems in the Kickstart ROM, but it does not care about filesystems loaded into the RDB area
- notes
- 68000 fallback mode with access to the SCSI controller and memory expansion
