Back when these cables arrived benchmarks showed that performance was lagging behind the flat cables. In theory round is bad, but the results could also be from cable quality. I have noticed that at least HP is now using round SCSI-cables in some of their servers, but how that relates to IDE I do not know. _______________________________________________ tsl-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.trustix.org/mailman/listinfo/tsl-discuss
