Yeah, sad init?
So far, I have had to use an old 40MB and I keep wiping it just to get the O/S onto it, so that seems ok, but I now have some trouble with the Software I am using to test the speeds - it wont read the TT's SCSI Drives properly, so I am going to have to get a better version.
I dont have an actualy speed tester on Linux either, so, what I am doing for that one, is simply making a 100MB File, and copying it a few times, as that gives you a bit of an example, but even then, it seems to be making up numbers for a laugh!
For example, I get a steady 600k, then the next time I copy it, I get 30k but they both copied in about 15 seconds? so what the hell is that telling me?
I am pretty much done actually, so another couple of days I recon for it all.
I was hoping I could throw them all in one by one, and also together ( to see if that made any differences ) but with the STE's PSU going byebye ( Twice by the way ) I was a little knocked back.
