MEGA 4000AT 
The MEGA 4000AT is an enhanced Version of the  A4000T . The system eliminates the shortcomings found in the original A4000 Tower namely lack  of space and 880K floppy drive. The MEGA 4000AT is designed to accommodate the entire Video  Flyer system, including the video and audio hard drives, TBC’s, Vscope ect , without the need for  an external drive bay or octopus cable. This eliminates potential problems which are caused  when using  multiple case configurations including ground loops and video stuttering due to bad  SCSI cabling. The 10 Bay case includes multiple cooling fans to optimize drive performance and  to keep the Toaster and Flyer card cool.  Other features include hefty 300 Watt Power Supply (400/600 watt , optional) , High density Floppy drive, 50 MHZ 68060 processor standard (200 MHZ Power PC processor optional) , and an optional De-interlaced display which allows the  use of standard VGA Monitors with the Toaster System. A second system called the MEGA 4000AR  is a rack mount version allowing easy integration into studio environments . The system is  housed in a standard 19” EIA rack enclosure and comes in two sizes 5 bay or 9 bay. All system  come with AmigaDos Version 3.1 and can be configured to your requirements.

MEGA 4000 DT 
New MEGA 4000 Conversion Kit . With this kit you can convert you desktop Amiga 4000 to the MEGA 4000 . This allows plenty of room for the Toaster Flyer and Hard drives required The MEGA 4000 Conversion kit uses the same Case  as our regular MEGA series systems . The design moves the Video Toaster and ISA cards like your TBC IV & Vscope cards away from the Zorro slots . In fact if your configuration includes a Toaster, TBC IV and Vscope  you will  have more Zorro expansions slots available than is available with other cases.
