yeah i know,
but 6 same maxtor 80gb drives
4 on ultra66 do 28mb/sec
2 on ultra33 do 13mb/sec
so before i go shopping for other options (all my pci slots are full so i
then have to go for some multichannel ide card....)
i want to know if i can get that 13mb any higer (which i think should be
possible since the controller can do max 33mb/sec (ok now it will never
hit that, but i think 25 or something should be possible))
Thnx,
Stephan
