I almost always download to RAM:, but I haven't noticed any differences to whether I d/l to ram or the HD, but I still do it in RAM:. I'm using a GVP Series II SCSI controller. I have no idea if its DMA or not. The speed between the computer and modem is set for 38400, and I usually connect at 14,400 and have a cps rate of about 1600. I'm also running dos 2.0, and it's on a 2000 with a 386 BB installed. I've noticed that if I go above 38400 baud I get erros in the transfers. Now if I accelerate my amiga… it will be with a Zeus 040 and that will become my HD controller too. Any ideas? Thanks for your help
