One issue that comes to mind with the Disk doublers is that the performance hit (without hardware) will be much more noticable than on the PC. With the Amiga SCSI transfer rates measuring in the 1Meg per second range, the software compression algorithms really eat into the time. BUT, this doesn't mean that it isn't a good thing… I have given the idea serious consideration at a number of times. If you have the right information, it may turn out to not be that difficult to implement…
