- I read that the Morley card in conjunction with Fujitsu winchesters achieves
- about 2.1 MB/s transfer rate. In another magazine, the Fujitsu drive was
- quoted as being SCSI2. What I don't get is why noone has brought out a SCSI2
- interface to take advantage of this. The only answer I can think of is that the
- memory on the Arc is so small that all this speed would be wasted, although
- I could see it being useful in searching large databases...
