I use it with a Yamaha CRW6416S and can reliably write CDs at 4x speed on a slow P120 (the same hardware under Win95 can only write at single speed reliably). I've also used it with an HP DDS-2 DAT drive and my dumps run at approx 700K/sec with compression. Finally tosha reports that it can read audio data at just under 5x speed (just over 900K/sec). I've also used it with a old 100MB ZIP drive reliably. Note: when I bought my 1460B it did not come with a cable that would fit into Mac style SCSI ports as found on the ZIP. I had to send off for a suitable cable from Adaptec. The cable itself was free but the postage and packing charge was very expensive. -- Jose Marques To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
