    Blew up my SCSI ......

    but would this affect the 3.9 ms versus the 6.9 ms read speed of the 320 versus the 160 when using the 160 adapter? i mean, with a 105 meg/sec read burst speed with the Maxtor i'm pretty close anyway to 133.

    Blew up my SCSI ......

    Thx UI, i did do that by entering the Adaptec BIOS, heh...even flashed a new BIOS on the adapter. I also used Powerstrip to reduce the PCI latency to zero on the adapter. I guess i'm just amazed at the performance of this new drive. It rocks !!!

    i got a Thermaltake Giant III for my 9600XT, a Memorex combo drive (52X CD-R, 32 CD-RW, 16X DVD) and a 30 gig Maxtor DiamondMax Plus 8 Ultra ATA133 hard drive. :D

    Blew up my SCSI ......

    well, the read access time is actually 1.5 milliseconds slower than the SCSI. but due to having to load up the bios for the adaptec SCSI controller AND transfer data thru the PCI bus i feel the Maxtor is far better. i reduced my push button on startup to on the internet time from 23 seconds with...
