But not on the SCSI drive, yet. I'm surprised!

It's strange, I tried the ol'Diskspeed and AFS was faster than FFS everywhere. But when 
I measure the transfer rate with DTA it's some 200 K/s slower. I could mail you some

I don't really believe I would get one, I experienced  somelousy support from FLD. Then 
I bought it from a german company,  they are no good either.
