As Poseidon works with the latest Mediator driver you should be OK. I don't think there is a Mediator solution for 68000 Amigas.

Does this system provide any speed increases over using Poseidon? I know with Poseidon and my Subway it's very very slow. I even have a very fast machine 603e/233 and 68060/50.

Wouldn't that just be a limitation of the Subway because it's on a clockport? I've heard it's slow... The same Poseidon on a DENEB just flies...

Certain persons will say "YES", others will say "NO".
You can't compare ANAIIS and Poseidon, but I'm sure that benchmarks will give ANAIIS winner in most cases. SysInfo gaves up to 5MB/s, that's false, because in reality it is 10-15kB/s.
It depends of the transfer size.
To transfer 512B, on the usb bus, you need to transfer 556B (31(out) + 512(in) + 13(in))
To transfer n*512, it will be better (31(out) + n*512(in) + 13(in))
In most cases, it is 4096B per transfer.

On my A2000 68000, it can write 25MB of data in 30 minutes using the workbench, with Subway and a 80GB usb/SATA disk, PFS formatted.
I use this disk between WinUAE and the Amiga. no problem with PFS and WB3.1, (works even with WB1.3, but it crashes (guru 4) if the disk is removed).
I have renounced to use FAT95 and thumbs. Sometimes, the usb write don't work and I don't know why...
