- About 6 weeks ago I got a Fujitsu 1Gb scsi-II drive, which works great on my
- A3000. Sorry, I can't remember the exact model number, but
- if I remember right it cost $263 from Dirt Cheap Drives.
- It was simply plug & play with HDtoolbox under OS 2.04 and OS 3.1.
- (I tried it out under 2.04, but didn't install it permamently until I
- upgraded to 3.1).
-
- Diskperf rates it at 1.6mbytes/sec on the largest transfer size, and
- it does seems noticably faster than original quantum LP52s and an ancient
- Q280 I picked up along the way.
