Good suggestion, was already tried here to no avail;
One system uses Brand-new micropolis fdrives and Quantum drives on a DPT PM3224
(SE Wide). The other is BusLogic 956CD (Diff. WIDE) with HP drives.
Both are terminated CORRECTLY (as per spec). READS from disk are OK, WRITEs are
a disaster. Tape Operations are particularly bad. I could panic Linux 1.2.0 wi
th
a DAT drive on a DPT with blocking factor of 1MB. Still can do it on 1.3.71 wit
h
blocking factor of 32K.
