Content Type: text/plain

Ray,

I just wiped an 80G WD 7200 speed drive (regular old
IDE, *not* SATA) in approx. 35 minutes. I then cloned
it from the current matching drive that's in the
Shuttle right now -- a drive that's pretty well Full
Up. I did not carefully clock the clone operation,
but it can't have taken too much more than around 90
minutes. Thess were both from floppy boots of DFSEE
6.17, still my standard tool for this sequence. I let
it use the Ultra-DMA driver, which is supposed to be
the fastest option. Sooooooo, I don't really know
how you might be doing this, and having it take the
better part of a day . . . even on a drive twice this
size !
