I am currently using an Amiga 500 with a SyQuest drive (the 44 mb one)
with a Trumpcard 500.  The Trumpcard says that it supports removable
media and that no "diskchange" command is necessary.  I had no problems
setting up the drive and the SCSI controller.  Trumpcard has included a
setup disk and it will recognize the SyQuest drive as a drive it can
control (which, by the way, is the only removable media drive that the
Trumpcard already recognizes I believe).  I was up and running with my
system in a very short time, and so far, have been very pleased with the
results of my setup.  When looking for a controller, make sure that it
says "supports removable media."  These controllers don't need the
diskchange command because that is handled inside the hardware.  Hope
this helps.
