-
- >Transfer rates? (yeah, the A3000 isn't the fastest host adapter out there,
- >but it's not bad)
-
- Asynchronous on my A3000 was about 2.2MB/sec.
-
- According to the tech manual:
-
- Sync Burst.......... 10MB/sec
- ASync Burst......... 4MB/sec
- Max Sustained....... 6.7MB/sec
- Avg Sustained....... 5.5MB/sec
- Min Sustained....... 3.5MB/sec
-
- That pretty much matches the results we got on both the Fastlane and
- WarpEngine SCSI controllers.
-
- Since the book is open...
-
- Average Seek
- Read...... 10.0 ms
- Write..... 12.0 ms
- Maximum... 25.0 ms
-
- Spindle Speed.... 5394 rpm
-
- >Does it support reselect? (it should, but...)
-
- Yes, according to the docs it does. Can't really confirm it.
-
- >Is is plain or Fast SCSI-2?
-
- Fast SCSI-2
-
- >Actual capacity?
-
- User Logical Blocks = 2,091,050
