>>I have an 0632 ACA 1.3GB RW unit, and I like it, but writes sure seem slow. In article <446cmc$3ks@jeefers.microdes.com>, David Dillard <david@microdes.com> says: >Is this a full height or half height drive? Full height. PN "91G9240" sounds right, for some reason. It's a "-CBx" drive suffix. >IBM was selling a full height drive that was slower than molasses (part of >the reason being that by default the drive always did verifies when writing). Is this a mode-page settable thing? I'm getting 500KB/sec writes, and I hate that. -Kenny -- Kenneth R.
