In a recent review I fitted my prized Amiga 2000 with a Dicke Olga 68030 accelerator. It also came with super fast IDE, so, do I really need the machines original Grand Slam SCSI controller? Using a BlueSCSIv2 that card MIGHT give me a virtual CD-Rom Drive and also WIFI networking. But, will it actually work?

This video also gives a brief tour of my Amiga 2000, and the kit I currently have it it. The question is, will the Grand Slam card also join the party? Watch to find out...
