I was seeing around the 500K/sec mark out of the ATAPI Zip I was testing last night. It's a bit hard to be sure exactly how quick it is though as the machine it's on has too much memory. (ie. if you run iozone <2xmemory size> the file doesn't fit on the disk 8) How does this compare with an LS-120? -- \\ Sometimes you're ahead, \\ Mike Smith \\ sometimes you're behind. \\ mike@smith.net.au \\ The race is long, and in the \\ msmith@freebsd.org \\ end it's only with yourself. \\
