- Hi,
- I have a 386/40 with 8MB RAM. I use Borland's Paradox a lot and want to
- add a better disk caching (sp?) software to my system as my HD does not
- have built in Cache. Currently I am using SmarDrv (from Microsoft) and
- want to move to HyperDisk. Before I do that I want to know the opinion of
- you folks out there who have used this HyperDisk package before. I would
- appreciate if you could share your impression of this product with me.
- Is it any better than SmartDrv. Also if you use it, I would like to know
- your favourite 'options' list (I plan to use Write thru feature as I dont
- want to take any data-loss-risks).
-
- What about other two Hyper Programs--HyperKey and HyperScreen. Are they
- any usefull? Do they steel a lot of CPU cycles?
-
- Thanks for your suggestions in advance.
