- The Fastlane Z3 is SCSI II, transfer rates will depend on the drive,
- rather than the card. The card will likely be faster than any 1Gb
- drive you could put on it. Expect 3 to 4 MB/s (SysInfo).

- There is also the 4091, by DKB or Commodore. Similar to the Z3,
- performance-wise, but no RAM sockets.

- Pass. Probably much the same. Wouldn't think they'd be faster..
