- Keep it and either wait for the C= Zorro-III SCSI or a third party one.
- Or try and get an A2091 as they seem to be working in the A4000. Albeit
- slow, I've seen them advertised for as low as US$ 49.- So an ideal short
- term solution. In my opinion the IDE drive in the A4000 takes up just too
- much processortime. Starting GRn for example and having it run through
- the directories is faster on a Q105LPS/Series-II combo in an A2500 than
- it is on my A4000. [The wonders of DMA :-)]
