For software, I have experimented with read/write caching under SMARTDRV and the caching options under the system setup. Have not toyed with hardware. Please send suggestions via e-mail: gjd3343@trex.oscs.montana.edu or joe_d@erchp2.erc.montana.edu I will buy the fixer a soda/beer, draw them a cartoon, or offer some other heartfelt token that's not all too expensive. Thank you in advance.
