Would a 30ms hard drive give you significantly better performance than a 60 or
80ms drive on an Amiga (I'd be using it with an A500 and the -MAX- interface)?
I remember hearing that it wouldn't make much difference on a PC/XT, because
disk access time was insignificant compared to other bottlenecks in the system.
