In my experience, the best thing to do with a Commodore bridgeboard is to use hardfiles on SFS or PFS3 partition with a lot of buffers and fastest Amiga cpu possible and you will get very fine speed for your bridgeboard harddrive.
Whatever solution you are using (IDE controller, dedicated partition, hardfile) you won't break easely the 500 MB frontier anyway so the simpler the better.
Maybe a dedicated SCSI controller with its own rom such as Adaptec 1542 could do better.
You can also ditch your dead floppy controller completely and just access your hardfile from the Amiga side with CrossDos for file transfer, just be careful to not access the hardfile from both side at the same time or it will be trashed.
If floppy is absolutely needed, use an Amiga floppy drive and PCTask which can use the same hardfiles as the A2386.
