- I am curious about DCF/2 for OS/2. I DLed the dcf2show file from hobbes
- and watched the show, but it left me with a few unanswered questions.
- Will I be able to see a DCF2 drive from within native DOS? Or will I
- be stuck only being able to see it from OS/2? What kind of a performance
- hit can I expect on my system when using this product (I have a 486/50)?
- I am assuming that the swapfile must remain on a non-dcf2 partition, is
- this correct? Finally, does DCF/2 add additional logical drives to the
- system (I am already up to G, I don't want to have to refer to my drives
- as H-N...it would be too wierd). As I understand it, this is how Stacker
- does its thing.
-
- Thanks for the answers...I am looking forward to doubling my storage!
