Hello! Has anyone put together any IBM-AT-compatible configuration that permits the dumping of 44-megabytes/minute of data to a hard disk? I've been told that there are high-speed buses available for special-purpose applications, but I've not been able to find them. Also, can anyone recommend fast hard disks for this purpose?

That is right at the upper limit of what the WD1007/WA2 can do. It's possible you could make the system work with by using a 63 sec/trk ESDI drive, but the WD1007/WA2 doesn't handle those 15 Mbit/sec drives yet. -- James R.
