Message-ID: <8612221456.AA07970@ucbvax.Berkeley.EDU> Date: Mon, 22-Dec-86 09:56:07 EST Article-I.D.: ucbvax.8612221456.AA07970 Posted: Mon Dec 22 09:56:07 1986 Date-Received: Mon, 22-Dec-86 18:48:23 EST Sender: daemon@ucbvax.BERKELEY.EDU Organization: The ARPA Internet Lines: 5 Approved: info-vax@sri-kl.arpa At RHBNC. we have a small cluster comprising two 780s, each of which supports an MSCP-served RP07. There is also a three-tier stack of HSC-509 served RA81s. I have no figures for the difference between the access times to the two types of disc, or for the overheads, but subjectively they (the RP07s) do not seem to impose an excessive overhead on the system. ** Phil.
