Purchased a SCSI2SD V5.1 and a 16GB SD card. I have tried several sizes in the scsi2sd-util, but haven't had any luck so far.

scsi2sd-util: these are the latest settings I tried:
General Settings and Device 1: see the pictures in the attachments.

The Amiga 2000 boots with the A2091 floppy disk. In HDToolbox, the SCSI2SD shows up: SCSI, 1, status: unknown.
Change drive type, Define new drive type. What values should I enter here for Cylinders, Heads, Blocks per track, Blocks per cylinder.
I've been fiddling with this but haven't had any luck so far.
If somebody could please enlighten me about this...
THANKS!
You should be able to read the drive definitions off the card when in HDToolbox.
I have one of these in an A2091 and another in an A590 both ROM version 6.6 and it worked in both.
Only the A590 could see the full 16Gb, the A2091 could only see 2Gb which I put down to it running with 1.3 ROMs while the A590 is in a 2.04 machine.
These are the default settings I used, didn't change them from stock:
