Manufacturer Supra, USA | Date 1989 | Amiga A2000, A3000, A4000 | Interface Zorro II | Autoconfig ID 1056 / 12 |
- SCSI controller
- 53C80 controller IC
- uses polled I/O, not DMA transfer
- to reduce CPU load the controller buffers two 8 bit transfers from the hard disk and transfers them as 16 bit to memory

- automounts FFS volumes only
- 50 pin internal header
- DB25 external connector
- place for a 3.5" hard disk on the card
- the hard disk takes its power directly from the power supply not the card itself
- A-Max II driver
- supported by NetBSD and OpenBSD
- series III:
- RDB compatible
- unlike former revisions this one automounts all volumes
- no RAM option
- hard disk activity LED connector
- hard frame
