Subject: Anyone using an A1000 Golem HD controller?

Is anyone using one of the Golem SCSI II Controllers with an
Amiga 1000?  I am considering dumping my Supra controller if
the Golem will work properly with an accelerated (030) system
and at the performance levels claimed (1.42MB/sec).

If anyone has one of these things...

  1) How much does it cost?

  2) Does it slow down the system a lot during access?  Like
     when the harddrive runs, the system essentially comes
     to a halt.

  3) Is the Seagate 296N on their HD support list?

  4) Does it auto-boot on a ROM based machine?

  5) Does it function 100% with a 68030 @ 20Mhz machine?

  6) Overall, how do you like it?

Sorry for all of the questions, but I want first hand experiences.
