Yeah and one of the reasons was that every byte had to be reversed due to the endianness. So it was never going to be anything but slow.
There were pc addon boards for this reason for both Amiga and Atari but they were expensive as they were basically a whole pc on a board.
- rob74 3y agoI had one of these in my Amiga 500: https://www.edsa.uk/blog/the-kcs-power-pc-board https://www.edsa.uk/blog/the-kcs-power-pc-board (this was before the PowerPC CPUs appeared on the market, so the name wasn't as confusing as it sounds today). In addition to being a PC board, it also doubled as a memory expansion and RTC when you were using the host Amiga system.
