Is Elbox A4000 ATA controller DMA?
« on: September 02, 2003, 10:59:14 PM »
Hi folks!

As you can see in the topic, I'd like to know if the elbox FAST ATA 4000 controller (the Zorro III card) does DMA on an A4000 as I'm thinking of recommending an IDE CDRW but I don't know if it will behave like in the 1200 powerflyer (speedy, but HIGH cpu usage).

Regards,

Dragster

Thanks everybody

Well, the idea was to use cheap IDE CDR(W) drives without having the machine freeze while burning. I guess SCSI is the only real option to use DMA but at a much higher price :-(

Cheers
