I only have experience with an scsi2sd interface, but I do not believe a CF interface will fare much better. I do not think they can compare with a traditional hard drive when fitted to this type of computers, but that is just my experience. Early Macs or Amigas are entirely different systems as far as requirements are concerned.

My feeling is the system could use a 10k or 15k scsi drive, it is already going to be CPU starved with 6.5 in play, the last thing it probably needs is slow read/write speeds.

My Indigo2 was originally fitted with a R4000 and an old Conner hard drive. Replacing it with a Cheetah 10k drive changed the responsiveness dramatically under 6.5. Increasing memory to 192MB was also a very noticeable improvement.

That is a nice machine, anyhow.
