Message-ID: <103@ativax.UUCP> Date: 7 Mar 88 17:03:03 GMT Organization: AEON Technologies, Boulder, CO Lines: 8 Keywords: disk,performance Although the IBM-AT disk controller runs with a sector interleave of 1, it misses consecutive sectors. Sector interleave of 2 or 3 is optimal, even on 16MHZ clones. Does anyone know the reason for this and if it is possible to make an IBM-AT run optimally with no sector interleave? -- John Behrs @ AEON Technologies boulder!fesk!ativax!john 2888 Bluff Street Suite 227 Boulder CO 80301 (303) 499-7304
