I have a 177Mb Imprimis IDE (type no. is buried inside the computer...)
and a 386sx board. Coretest report 826 Kb/sec. as typical trensfer-rate
(830 Kb/sec. peak). This when I set the bus clock as PROCCLK/2 (8 Mhz).
Before I had bus clock as ATCLK and transfer-rate is 520 Kb/sec. :-(
Obviously interleave is 1:1.
Bye.
