- Well, that's the problem. The backup would be considerably faster if
- you could go Asynchronous. BTW, I'm only getting 2-3M/minute with
- my GVP Series II (you know, the controller that says, "What? you mean
- SCSI means more than HDs?")
-
- Anyway, if the drive works okay, don't worry about it.
