Very true words! My first hd was a 20 meg mfm seagate tied to a 2090
contoller, I thought I was in hog heaven!, when I upgraded to a 40 meg
quantem a year later, I thought it screamed, I was the envy of all my
friends! I have been using two quantem 105s for the last few years and
was quite content with their performance until now, they are dog slow!!!
Sysinfo shows the 105 at 998,010 bytes/sec, the new seagate is 2,037,388
bytes a second. cut my highly customized boot sequence from by over 30
seconds! Now I just have to get a SCSI II controller for the drive (what
is the saying about the difference in men and boys?!)
