If it's the review that ran in Computer Shopper several months ago, you
should know that it was somewhat biased. Performance of both systems was
tabulated, and the Wedge came out a sorry second. Why? Because the
Palomax was driving an RLL drive, the Wedge an MFM (which accounts for a
50% speed increase right there).
Actually, "biased" is too strong a word. At that point in time, the
Palomax did have better software support, and initially the Wedge was NOT
recommended for RLL drives. Considering the lead time required for a
national magazine, it's probable the reviewer was working on the best facts
he/she had at the time.
Anyway, I mentioned the Wedge in response to a 1000 hard drive thread (I
THOUGHT… if it was on 2000s, I apologize!); you'll have to ask Larry
Phillips about 2000 Wedges, as I don't know.
