Varied. Some people seem to be getting drives that are HIDEOUSLY slow.
Others report speeds in the range that you'd expect. C= folks are now
aware of this and are trying to nail down why. Tomas Rockiki (Radical
Eye/TeX) has such a slow machine and is helping nail down the cause.
A working IDE drive will be slower than an equivalent SCSI. But that is
with drives in the 2.2meg/sec class in SCSI which on the A4000 come out at
speeds on the order of 1meg/sec.

Um, the 2091 is by reports also hideously slow but not as slow as some
of the IDE drives in a few machines that "escaped" or something.
