James,
My understanding is that the bottleneck in the CD-ROM/SCSI subsystem is the
CD-ROM. Most 8-bit cards run faster than most CD-ROMS (I know my PAS16
card w/ SCSI will run >600kps) while most drives are 300kps or less (unless
you get the Pioneer 604x – 600kps). The bottom line is that unless you
putting in a SCSI HD, a better SCSI interface won't buy much.
