I would suggest that you get a different drive, the JAZ, made by Iomega, which
is a 1 GIG removeable HD and is as fast as most HDs and each cartridge is about
$99. It may even be used directly by the Flyer since it has sustained transfer
rates in the 3mb/sec, I think.
It retails for about $499 so I am sure it will sell cheaper.

I appreciate that. I am not using a Flyer, just a Toaster and a PAR Board.
However, I have 4 questions:
Does it hook up quickly and easily to the Amiga?
Does it hook up as easily to the Pentium?
Will I be able to share files with the 2 different platforms?
Will it work with my system as described above?
Thanx!
