I suggest you forget about the Commodore controllers and go for a GVP Impact HC+8 Series II.

Can be picked up cheaply and supports 8mb fast onboard.

I'll second that, they use commonly available 30 pin simms (1Mb) and can be set for autoboot or disabled with a jumper. The hard drive can be screwed directly to the card saving your places on the front.

The A590/2091 is not a bad card at all. The only shortcoming is that it only supports up to 2MB of RAM.
