Mediator 4000D and Fastlane Z3?

[danbeaver]

You have a working (SCSI) Fastlane Z3 in an A4000?  That is virtually unheard of.  They are such finicky cards that I named their compatibility issues the "Fastlane Blues."  They seem to come mated for life to only one A4000, and in my experience I tried 2 different Fastlanes in 3 different A4000D's and 2 A4000Ts.  They work as partially filled RAM boards, but never SCSI.

I would sell your fastlane and the daughter board as a unit and keep the Mediator.  Then take the income and invest in an A4091 or FastATA 4000.

This only my opinion, but having explored the forums and the web for weeks, plus burning a set of 8.5 ROMs in my attempt to get one working, I determined that Resistance is Futile, and your time will be assimilated.

I do, but I've been hesitant to.

It's a Cyberstorm 060 MKII, so you'd think it would work with their own SCSI card.

I couldn't find a SCSI module for the Cyberstorm, so that's why I got the Fastlane Z3. My Warpengine has a fast SCSI controller, but it's not an 060.

So it's kind of a matched set. If they don't work together, one of them has to go.

Edit: Everything points to it being the Mediator IMHO. Seems to work well without it.

Well your Warp engine  could be with one of the adapter things being sold on A1K and AmiBay
