Blizzard PPC + scsi drive

[Bennymee]

That is EXACTLY what I was looking for . Those 10Mb/s is not bad, but I saw Cyberstorm PPC and I think it did something like 20Mb/s. I wish AmigaOS4.1 would support scsi on BPPC .

Thank you for clarification!

The Cyberstorm controler does 40MB/sec, but in practise less. My IBM UW drives with 3.x did ~30, my OS4.1 setup with a 15K harddrive does less.

Good to know. I really think that maxed our A4000 is really, really nice machine! Maybe someday I will play with it.

I need to say that scsi (despite 10Mb/s) limit is still very fast for Amiga use and my HDD is really quiet. I got used to CF cards, and didn't want regular HDD (my Amiga is really, really quite), but good HDD and all is good.

I just copied 1GB of data from CF to my SCSI drive and it took literally few minutes. NICE!

The big plus is that the CyberstormPPC uses DMA, while the Amiga onboard IDE does PIO.

On Aminet there is Reorg, which I used a lot. But the need is less if you have an SSD or SD-card as a Workbench drive these days.
