Do it yourself: Dual SD card and ethernet controller for Amiga 500
The a500-sd-plus-controller is plugged onto the CIA A chip of the Amiga 500, enabling the use of two SD cards and a 10 Mbit network connection. One SD card is intended as hard drive, the other as a hot-swappable medium.
On the software side, the sd-lide.device and enc28j60.device are used. According to Sysinfo, an SD card read speed of 250 KB/s is achieved; the data transfer rate of the network connection, which mainly depends on the CPU speed, reaches up to 22 KB/s. (snx)
