I had to dump my 2091 when I added a PP&S 040 to my A2000, I was getting floppy disk speed drive access ( well a little better, about 47K/sec ). I put in a Trumpcard Pro and things picked up quite a bit ( > 1 meg/sec ) but eventually went to a 4008 for external SCSI access. I believe I tried every patch and trick and nothing resolved the DMA access problems between the 2091 and the PP&S card. Another good card choice is the Trifecta 2000, it offers both fast SCSI and IDE drive support plus 8 megs of ZIP memory space, I just put one in my spare A2000 and it is one quick little sucker!
