Right now I have a 40MB IDE at 24ms. I only have 18MB left and I've just started whats the best size and controller to have. The prices are really high. Should I get a second HD or trade in for a larger drive. It seems that RLL are cheaper and MFM and SCSI are the larger HD. I also wanted to ask how much memory is required to have enough to allocate to cache. Trung
