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... --- The Weesh md32@andrew.cmu.edu md32@andrew.bitnet ...!{harvard,ucbvax}!andrew.cmu.edu!md32
