I was just wondering what is the fastest that can be expected from a hard disk on an Atari?
as in data transfer rates and such!
Damion,
I have an external SCSI SyJet drive (takes 1.5Gb cartridges). On my ST, I rated it at 16ms with a transfer rate of 1324Kb/s using HD-Driver utilities.
I imagine that it would be faster on my TT but I haven't rated it yet (remind me to do this and I'll let you know, along with the hard drive's speed).
In the meantime, why not visit http://www.seimet.de/index_english.html and ask Uwe Seimet (author of HD-Driver and hard disk expert) if he knows the maximum xfer rates.
