It's normal for a 68060 to identify as a 68040 under 3.1 as there were no 68060s in use when the code was written. Updating the CPU command, and the CPU libraries should solve this, but it shouldn't stop software from running at 060 speed.

As for both floppies, have you tried formatting one of the disks in one drive and reading it in the other? Maybe they were both badly adjusted in the past (assuming they came from the same source)

Just after reading this again, and you say you have it in a tower. Are you sure the cables are correct for the internal drive? Because the data lines are shared for all connected floppies, so if any one of them has a bad cable it will upset all of them. Make sure it's the right way around, and try the external one on your A2000...
