Hi everyone,

does anyone know if Stacker 2.0 is compatible with Smartdrv 4.0 of Windows 3.1?

that is, if i install Stacker, can i still cache the stacked drive?

when i read the readme.wri in windows directory, it says
superstor is not compatible with smartdrv.

that means you can't cache the drive that is superstored

is that true for stacker 2.0 also?

please give me some advice

thanks .... 

oh.. i am using a 486-33, 256K cache, 8M ram... if that helps

pete

I'm using all three without a single problem...

The Stacker Manual recommends caching the harddrive that contains
STACVOL.  This way, the stacked drive is cached and you can bring
more into cache since it is compressed.

Don't know what superstor is.  But shouldn't need to cache STACVOL,
just the drive it resides on.  Hope this helps....
