I'm looking to buy a case for the ACA 500 PLUS, it hasn't arrived yet as I've only ordered it today, but was wondering the following...

  • Basically the seller of the cases asks if the board that I have is pre or post 09/2018. I'm assuming you're selling boards that were made after 2018, but just thought I best check to be sure before I order from them?

    Also I've seen people installing a side port extension that reverses the direction of the ACA card and has it mounted internally, I've only seen one person who's done this and he can't seem to close his case, have you seen a solution for this at all?


    Thanks for your time.

    You'll have the new version, of course.

    That's going against the overall concept of the ACA500, as you can't access the CF card slots any more, you can't see the DisMo, you can't press the DisMo button, and there's no space to install an A1200 accelerator. It's like buying a sports car and driving it with thin spare wheels only - why cripple the ACA500plus?

    OK, thanks for your help, I'll make sure the external cases have access to the buttons and CF cards before I order. Thanks.
