This is totally wrong. There are two speeds for PCI, 33MHz and 66MHz, which come in both 32bit and 64bit variants. 32bit * 33MHz can do 132MB/s in burst mode, doing 10MB/s is no great challenge. > # Note that the > # ISA bus speed is usually slower than PCI, so you'll get even > # slower throughput. You just don't want to use ISA at all if you want performance. -- http://www.coker.com.au/bonnie++/ Bonnie++ hard drive benchmark http://www.coker.com.au/postal/ Postal SMTP/POP benchmark http://www.coker.com.au/projects.html Projects I am working on http://www.coker.com.au/~russell/ My home page
