Hi.

Hmm your GVP rom's version is old.
Last offical release from GVP is rev 4.15

Your 2091 have newer roms. Last roms from Commodore is 7.0

So.. I think (not sure) you will get bigger SCSI disk on
the 2091.

But you can get the 7.0 rom for the 2091 easy from ebay for a few bucks. The 4.15 rom's for your GVP is more rare.

But, as I remember there is only 1 rom chip on the GVP?

2000 HC+8 is SCSI II board
A2000 SCSI+8 is SCSI I board

And if you have A2000 SCSI+8 board, It looks like rom 3.15 is the last one for this board.

And the bord do use 2 roms. So you have too burn yourself.

So atm you are best off whit the bit slower 2091 SCSI card.
And use the GVP as ram card.

you find the information about this at this page:

    * memory eight 30 pin SIMM sockets accept up to 8 MB RAM
    * accepts 1 MB SIMMs in groups of two
    * DMA between drive and 16 kB onboard SRAM



I belived the HC was a new design SCSI II card. :) And the A2000+8 was a old SCSI one. :-O

But, sorry for my confusion.
