I am considering buying a PMMU for virtual memory purposes.
I have a question though....
I have a Rodime 140 internal (~27 ms seektime).
Has anyone experienced the perfermance of a drive of this caliber?
If so....what's it like with virtual and a drive like this?
Is it acceptable, poor, good, awesome?
Would I only notice delays when changing programs or do things get
swapped more often?

Let me know what you've experienced...
