PiStorm32 Lite for Amiga 1200

PiStorm32 Lite for Amiga 1200 *new*

The PiStorm32 Lite for the Amiga 1200 uses a Raspberry Pi as processor accelerator/”turbo card”, RTG graphics card and as hard disk interface on the Amiga 1200.
A Raspberry Pi 3a+, 4 or Zero2 is absolutely necessary for operation, but is not included in the standard package.
However, this can be ordered optionally from us. Pistorm32 Lite is compatible with the Raspberry Pi 3A+, Raspberry Pi 4 and the Raspberry PI Zero2WH (lower performance).

If you would like to purchase the CM4 I/O board, please also select this in the store!
