The Elbox CDTV 8.An 8 Meg Fast Ram and Battery Backed Clock for the CDTV.
It fits under the 68000 CPU leaving the Diagnostic connector free and on power up the extra 8 meg of ram is instantly accessible. The battery backed up clock takes a lot of fitting, You have to cut leg`s of chips and solder the wires from the card to the chip legs, The battery doesnt need to be fitted if not required. The card comes with an installation guide which shows in detail what to cut and what not to cut (And it is needed, You dont want to cut a leg of the CPU or solder the battery to a Data line), To just install the memory all you do is remove the CPU, Plug this card in its slot and put the CPU back on top of it all, There finished. The CDTV loads its drivers into the new fast ram so you end up with 950Kb of Chip ram instead of the 6/700 Kb, speeding up High Res Ham screens noticably. Like all fast ram upgrades this one requires no drivers, Can be mounted as a bootable RAD drive, used as a temporary drive (Mounted by Workbench as the "Ram Disk" every time) and oh yes you can play larger games, Animations and if you want you can do more work without saving. This card is only available direct from Elbox at www.elbox.com. 8 Meg is the most the CDTV can have installed while still using the original 68000 CPU but is more than enough for all jobs you could think up.
