Free hardware: GottaGoFastRAM provides 8 Mb RAM for A500/1000/2000 and CDTV
'GottaGoFastRAM' provides 8 MB autoconfig RAM for older Amiga models. The expansion is deliberately kept small for allowing to combine it with other expansions  - e.g. an IDE controller -. (cg) (Translation: dr)

Amigakit: RAM-/Flash-ROM expansion for A1200
A new expansion for the A1200 developed by AmigaKit does not only provide 8 MB Fast-RAM (configurable via jumper or "Early Boot Menu" as 4, 5.5 or 8 MB) but additional to FPU socket and clockport also 4 MB FlashRAM which is writeable using the included configuration tool. How the memory is mounted while booting the computer, the website of AmigaKit does not exactly explain: On one hand they are taking about " Kickstart modules or even full Kickstart images" but on the other hand also about software "instantly available on power on". Additionally the card also emulates the non-volatile Flash memory of the CD32, in which games can save e.g. highscores and scores. (cg) (Translation: dr)
