Yes, Magnetic is right you need the int hack for the mother board.  The reason your warp engine worked is because you had that red wire that you clipped to the chip, created the int hack for you.

Both are real nice cards (I have both of them in my 3k's), the hard drive throughput is actually a bit slow than the warp engine in my systems.  Although the 060 is faster.  I actually prefer the warp engine for it's design.  You didn't have to hack your case if you wanted SCSI 2.  With the Cyberstorm, you have to hack your case for the SCSI module.

Anyways good luck.

P.S. If your looking for Amiga 3k equipment, I will be ebaying my systems shortly.  I just put up my delfina card yesterday.  I have 3 3000's, 1 tower and 2 desktops.  1 tower and desktop are fully loaded. (nic cards, 040, 060, Retina z3, cybervision 64, etc...).  If you would like I could notify you when they are put up on ebay.

I'm assuming that this drive came from the warp engine scsi II controller?  I would first confirm that your 3.1 roms see the drive (reboot, hold down both mouse buttons and look to see if it is listed).  Boot from a 3.x floppy and should see it in scsi prefs, make sure your selecting scsi.device and not warpdrive.device in the icon information (if the boot floppy was used for your warp engine.)  

If this doesn't work, I would check termination.  Make sure both sides are terminated.

Good Luck...
