Specifically, how fast can an MFM format hard disk using a 1:1 16 bit controller transfer data? And the same for an RLL and ESDI format hard disk, and any other formats if you know of them. Usually such figures are given in bits/s or bytes/s. __________________________________________________________________________ Scott Settlemier Univ. of Oregon scott@cie.uoregon.edu (503)-686-0808 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
