Funny as it sounds try putting a heat sink on the SCSI chip. I got a massive increase in speed simply by mounting a heatsink on the symbios chip. Fixed my lock ups too. According to SYSSpeed I now get 9.8 megs a second transfers off my IBM SCSI 2 hardrives. before all I got was 2.5 megs a second.
I wonder how many Amiga users live with lack luster speed because Phase V decided to save a few Cents. Not to mention premature failures from blown mach chips becuase they over heated and died. I got heatsinks on two Mach chips that get so hot the heatsinks will burn your hand.
BTW I use MakeCD here and it works fine.
try downloading the newest updates off the web site.
