PiStorm 500 for Amiga 500/500+ *Fundraiser*

*PCB color green – Returns tested with full warranty

The PiStorm 500 Rev B uses a Raspberry Pi as processor accelerator/”turbo card”, RTG graphics card and as hard disk interface on the Amiga 500/2000.
A Raspberry Pi 3a+ is mandatory for operation, but is not included in the standard package.
However, this can be ordered from us as an option. Pistorm 500 is compatible with the Raspberry Pi 3A+ and the Rapberry PI Zero2WH (lower performance).
