 I have tried using the SCSI Accelerator INIT (version 1.1) on my Jasmine
20 (miniscribe drive). It doesn't do ANYTHING for performance; the Disk
Timer II numbers "before and after" were exactly the same. The Jasmine
formatting software doesn't let you set the interleave (v.2.34), but I
understood it to be 2:1, which was recommended by SCSI Accelerator's
author. So am I missing something, or does this INIT only work on certain
brands of hard drives?
