Hi all, I have just recently replaced my IDE internal ZIP drive with an internal SCSI unit to free up a slot for an extra HDD. Unfortunately i did this at the same time as upgrading to 2006, so I don't have much grip on whether this is a general mandriva issue or just 2006 related. The thing is I only have write speeds of max 32KB/s to the ZIP, sometimes running as low as 19KB/s. I use a lot of zips I got for free for daily backups of my thesis, but this speed thing is severely restrictive. Things go as they should under the other OS, but I don't use it for anything except running a GC program I couldn't force to work under wine. The only thing I have found that even remotely relates to the problem is http://wuarchive.wustl.edu/pub/aminet/disk/misc/XFSSpeedUp.readme but I don't know if this has anything to do with what linux is doing. Any help at all would be greatly appreciated.
