I have just added a new Hard Drive to my system a Westen Digital maxdor 120 gig with 8 meg cache. This has been added as a slave to a cd writer on the secondary ide channel with primary use as storage space. My other drives are segate's both with 2 meg cache a 120 (slave Storage) and a 80 gig (main).
I am amazed at the diffrence in time programs like svcd2dvd are taking to process files.
See these 2 log files for processing the same file....
Sorry for the length of the post now....
