Date: 8 Aug 1995 21:55:02 GMT Organization: Euronet Internet Lines: 10 Message-ID: <408mfm$7vu@news.euro.net> Reply-To: gary@kampai.euronet.nl NNTP-Posting-Host: kampai.euronet.nl X-Newsreader: IBM NewsReader/2 v1.2 Hi, I've installed FreeBSD on my system (4Gb SCSI disk, Adaptec 2940), whilst sector translation was enabled. Apart from DAT backup restore problems, it works fine. Is there anything to be gained (performance wise) by disabling it? Regards, Gary
