ICD just released a program into the PD called HDRATE which very
accuratley measures a hard drives performance as a data transfered
rate and a seek time rate.  My Seagates run at 550 Kps and 30ms where
my old MiniScribe ran at 375 Kps and 62ms.

Dave Small has a program in the April (??) iss ue of START magazine
that is a Partition Copy program - fast too, will do a 20meg imagine
copy to another HD in 80 seconds!!
