It's a good design but the SCSI drivers in ROM are broken. There is a Guru ROM already programmed (but not burned) that would fix the problems though.
The SCSI on the TekMagic A2060 is very fast, but as you said it indeed has its problems. It would be nice if they could convince Ralph Babel to put the GuruROM on these new batches! I would also like to upgrade my two A2060s to a GuruROM! As it is, the A2060 works well with hard drives but not very well with CD-ROMs, scanners, etc.
I wonder how they are sourcing the chips for all of these boards? How in the world can ancient NCR 53x710 SCSI chips still be in manufacture??
