The GForce040 is a much 'newer' board than the older 68030 combos running at 22MHz. The board probably has version 4.1 of the Faastrom which works for me pretty good with harddisk and cdrom. The Combo030 @22MHz I have doesn't seem to want to work with scsi drives. The Faastrom is very old (can't remember the version). I think the 040 boards are pretty good as far as the ones I've seen so you should be okay. You could always find a rare GuruROM for the GVP boards, that'd be the ultimate and give you true DMA and other advanced scsi features. Check out Ralph Babel's website for info on it.
