Actually, I was testing them out on a PCI PowerMac with a G3 upgrade in it on both the fast SCSI bus as well as an Adaptec PCI SCSI card. Same crappy throughput no matter where I stuck it. Are there any SCSI controllers out there that have an 80 pin connection? What boxes use SCA drives without the adapters to throttle down to 68 or 50 pin? > > Hmmm, I should try that with the 18 gig SCA drive I > have on my Radius 81/110, which *should* be able to > run at the maximum bandwidth the SCSI bus is capable > of, which *should* be fast enough for video capture > from the Media 100, but is not. I understand RE: interleave and all from back when installing larger HDs in Ses, Mac IIs and other older hardware. What I don't understand is why a 10K rpm drive ends up with 3Mb/sec throughput when a 4GB slower SCSI HD can get 7Mb/sec off the same bus???
