Buddha is a top-class IDE controller for Amiga computers with Zorro slots. It has been for 27 years now, and the IDE interface remains relevant for backing up harddrives, using CD- and DVD drives (readers and writers), and CF cards, as a cost-effective way to replace an SSD.
Buddha Plus One adds a few features to the extremely successful design:
two IDE ports
one CF card slot
1MByte of fast memory
GUI-based settings tool
elaborate LED concept
higher speed
multiple measures to prevent wrong installation
The two IDE ports and the CF card slot are non-conflicting. This means that you can use up to five mass-storage devices at the same time, and if that's not enough, you can add more Buddha controllers to the same computer.
Added memory
While the combination of a mass-storage controller and memory on the same card is not a new invention, the 1MByte of true 0-wait state fast memory of the Buddha Plus One controller does not conflict with existing memory cards. If you are expanding a system that has already maxed out it's 8MByte of Z2 space (no matter if it's fastmem, a PC bridge card or RTG graphics), Buddha Plus One will still add 1MByte of memory, without using any of the precious Z2 expansion space. A2000 users can choose to map the memory to one out of two addresses: The legacy "trapdoor memory" address $c0.0000, where it adds compatibility with old software titles (especially for machines that have been expanded to 1MByte or 2MBytes of chip ram), or to the normally-unused address space at $a0.0000. A3000 and A4000 users can only use address $a0.0000. Memory is not available if installed in a Zorro expansion of an A1200.
Shipping costs are charged only once for all the products you wish to purchase and which are in your shopping cart. The more products in your shopping cart, the greater the saving on shipping costs because they are calculated as a lump sum and not added together. It is not always necessary to use the shipping method, in fact you can collect your purchases as summarised below:
The shipping methods available are as follows:
Shipping to Italy or abroad with price depending on the destination (See table costs)
No shipping required because you have chosen to pick up on site or because in the cart you have also put a technical support service on site, in this case the shipping costs are zero since the products will be delivered by the technician who will also provide the support purchased.
