- Included in this archive are a set of CLI based programs for dealing
- with JDisk drives.
-
- The BridgeBoard comes with a set of utility programs which allow you to
- create and use virtual IBM disk drives on the Amiga. These JDisk drives
- can be written to and read from using the IBM programs AWRITE.EXE and
- AREAD.EXE. Although these programs can be fine for transferring small
- amounts of data, they can be slow when large files are being moved. I wrote
- these Amiga programs included herein so I could quickly transfer large
- amounts of data to the JDisks located on the Amiga.
-
- Using an Amiga 3000 with a 286 BridgeBoard, the WriteJD program will
- write a 250KB file from the harddrive to a ram based JDisk file in
- approximately 9 seconds versus 62 seconds using the AREAD program. The
- ReadJD program will transfer this same file from the JDisk to Amiga ram in
- approximately 6 seconds versus 62 seconds using AWRITE.
