- Divide this one by 2 to get the correct transfer-rates.
-
- When copying from ram: to ram: between two A1200 (50MHz030s) with ICard
- and a singler cable, 2 Ts and 2 terminators, we've had transfers up to
- 230-240k/sec. Remember this were under ideal situations.
- In dayly use I hardly ever see anything higher than 140k/sec.
- Besides this I've had lots of probs with ICard crashing my system :(
