The flyer would achieve a maximum of 16.6MBps in PIO mode 4 (or 5 depending on how you look at it) and would use 80-99% CPU time. The UW-SCSI on these accellerators is 40MBps max and as said before, uses about 20% CPU time maximum. So yes, it is quite a bit slower and less useful generally.

onestly, i've never seen a PowerFlyer, to go more than 7-8 MBsec (with a 060) and no more than 5 MBsec with a 040 (with quite 100% of CPU usage).

So, IMHO DMA UW-SCSI is the optimal solution even with those SCSI2IDE adapter. (~8 MBsec with a modern  and cheap IDE disk).

Hi CU_AMiGA,

have you got a real name/address from those guy?

He lives in Germany? and, sorry but i don't remember if you too?

I think should be only a shipment delay. It is too early, to think to a ripping IMHO.

Good luck :-)

Ciao
