I remember someone posting a message about a Hack/Patch that would allow one to use an Amiga Hard Drive partition as a Mac Hard Drive. If this exists, where how and when? Secondly, When one uses MAKEAB to create a PC partition on an AMIGA drive using the new Janus 2.0 software. What is the speed of the drive? (I know that different drive/controller combinations will give different results but I still want a basic idea.) If the transfer speed is liveable I will sell my Plus Hard Card 20 and migrate to one 140 Mb SCSI hard Drive for only $600.00 or so.

RE:Hard Drive on Amiga side using BridgeBoard. According to the Amiga Sentry, the disk index using Norton Utilities for this test is 6 time faster than a standart XT hard drive.
