I was speechless. I would certainly expect more than that from an NE2000. Over a year ago I booted up two NE2K-equipped machines with NetBSD (a 486/33 and a 386/40) and did a large (entire NetBSD distribution) ftp transfer from one to the other. My average rate was around 600K/sec. I have no reason to believe the card will not go faster, but my old IDE disk drives wouldn't. cjs -- Curt Sampson a09878@giant.rsoft.bc.ca Opinions are mine, Fluor Daniel Wright, Ltd. 604 488 2226 not Fluor Daniel's. 1075 W.
