Hi guys,

unfortunately I can't follow you all very well, what does it 
mean "sync/async"? I am using pre15 and it works fine, but
I have a feeling that it is slower than win95 on the same
ultra-wide scsi drive... I would appreciate if someone gives
me a tip - should I use some comand line switch or smth. else?

Thank you!
Alex
