- Hello,
-
- Currenly I am using a Future Domain 1660 with a Rodime 3259T and am
- obtaining XFER rates of about 860KB/s. This is not why I chose SCSI.
- I would like to increase the XFER value and would like a suggestion as
- to how this may be accomplished. I have a very knowlegeable friend who
- informed me that I would receive little or no performance boost by
- purchasing another mgfs. controller. His stipulation is that the only
- way that I would receive any performance boost is by purchasing
- another SCSI drive that supports a higher RPM rate. Is this true?
- Am I forever stuck with this IDE like transfer rate, unless I spend
- the bucks for another drive? Any insights you can provide will be
- appreciated.
-
- Please send responses to me via a personal e-mail reply rather than a post.
-
- Merry Christmas.
