No native SCSI support for the Top end Amigas?
Fs,.....you gotta laugh!  :lol:

Dont put CDROMS on your PPC SCSI WITH hard drives. It'll seriously slow up your hard drives performance. Do the above on IDE & you might as well use an Abacus.

The UWSCSI controller of my CSPPC works without problems, thanks.

I dont recall saying your UWSCSI was having problems!

It still leves me and, I guess, a bunch of toher users no fecking HW to use... To bad, for me this is atm useless.

I so much want new HW and AOS4.0

Do you have the funds for an A4000 604e?

You claimed scsi does not work. Well, CSPPC uwscsi controller works perfectly in my machine running OS4.

You mis-understood what I wrote. I said that for running CDROMS & Hard drives on the same SCSI Bus, you will slow up the hard drives performance. I didn't say it wouldn't work.
The problem doing this practice with IDE, is the CPU overhead which SCSI does not have. It's better to have CDROMS, Tape devices, scanners etc on one SCSI bus & your hard drives on another independent SCSI bus. Faster transfers all round! :-)

AFAIK as long as you use proper cables performance shouldn't decrease by the presence of mixed 8bit and 16bit devices regardless of being CD or HD.

Could you provide some kind of benchmarks to prove that you get better performance using both controllers simultaneusly instead of using just the more advanced UWSCSI one?

Why should I provide Benchmarks? Try it yourself.  ;-)

I have 8 and 16 bit drives mixed om my CS-PPC and that doesn't slow down anything. And yes, I tested with and without 8-bit devices. I get about 30Mb/s.

Not 40Mb/Sec then!?
