Is there any way to speed up this Starboard SCSI controller of mine?
The best rates I can get from it are 53k per second according to
diskperf and autotest.  I called Microbotics and they told me, 
"sorry, its not much faster than your floppy drive."
 
I said, "you didnt mention that when you sold it to me"
 
Is the problem with the driver? or is it just the miserable hardware?
Has anyone found a way to speed this thing up?
 
My drive is no problem , its a 277N (40 ms).  Definatly faster than 50k/sec.
