Ahh, but there is a solution...and it is called "JiffyDOS" by the
people of Creative Micro Design. Unlike other product this is an actual
chip replace (which can be done very easily) for the disk drive (whatever
it might be 1541, 1571, 1581, etc) and for the C64 or C128 that accesses it.
With JiffyDOS installed disk access overall (according to
the ad) is 15 times faster. What is more CMD claims 100% compatibility
or your money back!   
For an ad of this product see recent issue of a commodore magainze.
