delvis Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 I just saw this post on Alan H's 8 MB memory card can be used with the IDE and TOS 2.06 upgrades. http://www.atari-forum.com/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=26358 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goochman Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 So this plugs into the Mega ST card slot and gives you 8mb of RAM? Does it do anything else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delvis Posted April 13, 2014 Author Share Posted April 13, 2014 Yes it is the base to mount his IDE interface that supports SSD or HDD. Plus a TOS 2.06 chips system ties off it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delvis Posted April 13, 2014 Author Share Posted April 13, 2014 I have the original base w/o the 8MB currently. I do have the IDE interface and TOS 2.06 upgrades in my Mega ST. I do plan to get the 8MB board too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delvis Posted December 26, 2014 Author Share Posted December 26, 2014 Okay I bought the 8 MB upgrade to use with the IDE interface and TOS 2.06 upgrade also from Alan. Just got it installed last night. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fletch Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 How much was the whole package? I'm assuming the ram, TOS, and IDE interfaces are all sold separately? Looks like a nice install! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delvis Posted December 27, 2014 Author Share Posted December 27, 2014 Since I did it over time I really can't say anymore. Alan has links on the Atari-Forum that will give you pricing. IDE Interface Board (Run 8 GB SSD and DVD burner on it) TOS 2.06 8 MB Memory card Ethernec card Eiffel PS2 Keyboard and mouse card I bought all of these from Alan H who makes them. (Spread it out over a year.) I also added the External HDD case that I use with a DVD burner in it and the VGA card doubler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari8guy Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 In a Mega ST, what is the advantage of TOS 2.06, is it just to run IDE drives? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
locnar77 Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 where did you get the vga card doubler? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lynxpro Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 Can't you go up to 14MB so long as the hardware upgrade supports it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
