Marty, do you always drool over sleazy sales-talk?? http://www.northernsounds.com/ubb/NonCGI/images/icons/smile.gif A sustained transferrate of 60MB is not possible, you should be happy to get 10-15MB with IDE interfaces. The \'internal transferrate\' is not very interesting for the user, but yes, it SOUNDS amazing http://www.northernsounds.com/ubb/NonCGI/images/icons/smile.gif)
And.. 8 DVD movies at the same time.... lemme see, theoretically even an 8-speed DVD drive can do this. A DVD\'s transferrate is no higher than 1MB/sec., so.... http://www.northernsounds.com/ubb/NonCGI/images/icons/smile.gif

However.. the SILENCE aspect of the drive sounds very interesting. Hope it\'s not gonna be too expensive.
