- >What kind of transfer rates do you get from your jazz drive?
-
- With just the native A3000 SCSI, I only get about 2.2MB/sec. I'm not
- running Synchronous transfers.
-
- On a Fast SCSI2 controller like the Fastlane or WarpEngine it was quite a
- bit faster but I don't remember the exact numbers anymore. Better than
- 5MB/sec but with a really bizarre curve as you fill up the disk.
