Is there anyone who uses MO on the DVI system?
Of course ,MO is slower than HD,but faster than CD.
And if the mpeg standard is available on the DVI,maybe the speed of
CD becomes the critical point.
In addition to,the more the ability of chips grows great,the more
the speed for peripherals will be needed. It means there is the
limit for the quality of images ,if the data transfer is limited.
Anyway I use MO on the DVI system.(7 boards type ,ver 2.12)
In my case ,the transfer rate is
about 180kbytes/sec in normal case,and in another way (Put the fat &
directory on the memory) about 300kbytes/sec on DOS 3.3.
(logical sector size is 8kbytes,cluster size is 16kbytes, 16 bits fat)
Playing PLV from MO is ok,and also I can show still images on
and on during playing RTV on the 512*480 bit map.(Although the
speed for displaying still images is a little bit slow.)
Any comments? Thanks in advance. Susumu.

Unlike other kind of drives,such as CD-ROM and WORM, MO drives let you write data as well as read it,as hard disk drives . Most of MO drives use (perhaps all?) scsi i/f. Anyway about MO,perhaps you can find subjects on comp.prephs.scsi. I use Sony,Ricoh and Maxtor drives now. If you need more information,please send E-mail to me or contact below. ----- Jun Tsuchiya,Ph.D. 445 Indio Way Sunnyvale,CA 94086-4203 Verbatim Corp.
