Re: TF536 - Freeze on Disk (write) access?

I tried copying TimeGal from a CDROM to the Sdcard on TF536 with my A2000 and it locked up. I have transferred huge game collections to the cards with WinUAE without issue.PRobably twenty times. Have used 512 and 4096 block size. I have WinUAE set up similarly to my Amiga but there will be differenc...

TF534 or TF536 in Amiga 2000?

The TF536 locking up during intense file transfer, and the lack of FPU, makes me want to put the TF534 in the 2000, but the extra RAM on the TF536 makes more sense for some things. Both 4 and 6 work with two IDE devices in my system. I heard something about Zorro conflict with the TF534 but don't re...

Re: Noob building a TF534

I tried putting the TF534 back in the Amiga 2000 along with a CD-ROM. It works. The SD Card is Master and the CD ROM is slave. I didn't think it would work. Long cable too.

Re: TF536 - Freeze on Disk (write) access?

I will try transferring the file with a heatsink on the CPLD. It's the hottest IC on there. Too hot to touch for long o both my T536's.

Re: My first TF536

Today I received the RAM for my second TF536 and it works. Very cheap RAM: https://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&toolid=11800&pub=5575353675&campid=5338226872&mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fitm%2F1pcs-MT48LC16M16A2P-6A-G-DRAM-Chip-SDRAM-256Mbit-16Mx16-3-3V-TSOP-...

Re: TF536 - Freeze on Disk (write) access?

I tried zipping my whole game library now to test and it did indeed hang after a few minutes. Mouse cursor does not respond and the caps lock light locks on after I turn it on and off several times.

It hasn't happened in normal use, though I don't do anything harddisk intense on it.

Re: Figuring out the causes of slow disk access on the TF536

On I believe. It's running Workbench Classic 68k. Exact same basic install as the other cards.

Re: Figuring out the causes of slow disk access on the TF536

Setting the CF to 4096 block size gave me 15 s boot times. That's the fastest yet. Transfer speed is still super slow when testing. 50 kB/s. Takes several minutes to complete a Sysinfo or SYSspeed benchmark. I still like runnign it because it boots so fast. Games load slightly slower but just a few ...

Re: Figuring out the causes of slow disk access on the TF536

I get 6,5 MB/s in SYSinfo, and between 1,6 and 2,8 MB/s in the various SYSspeed tests with the card I'm running now. It's blistering and boots to WB in 17 seconds. 4096 block size I also have a CF card that boots in 17 seconds with 512 block size. It gets ~50 kB speed in tests in both Sysinfo and SY...
