Are you using 2091Turbo or 4091Patch? If so that is why you were getting errors. I tried both with a 2091 and MapBoard and in both cases I would get compare errors as well when it did a verify. If I didn't load either of those utils all was ok. I also got the HC8+ or as they call it now 4008. SCSI-1 performance, but much better that the 2091. Even with 7.0 ROMS. Now I have to decide whether to go 4091 or FastLane. If it wasn't for the fact that I just put a 340MB IDE in with the 120 that was already there and the fact that the 4000 (at least my version) won't boot from that drive, I might just waite for the fastlane. But I do want to boot from the IDE and so I may get the motherboard swapped out with the 4091. (I have ver 9 of Buster and the machine is Jan 93 old).
