Vampire 500 V2 IDE interface should reach over 20 MB/s when it is optimized. The work is still in progress, but we can offer variable to enable it: VampireTool (FastIDE|SlowIDE). By default the IDE interface is in slow speed, which is about the same as on Amiga 600.

It would be nice if this was available on the Vampire 600 V2, are there any plans for a plus model.

I think time would be better spent on other Vampire projects rather than revisiting the V600 design anytime soon. Likewise with the core I've said before that I'd rather see new features added rather than spending too much time tuning the IDE hardware for more speed at this point but I believe the team said that it wasn't consuming much of their effort anyway. Gunnar was saying the bottleneck is now in the device driver firmware so again that shouldn't be delaying the work on the core.
