Well, a little more confusion... I am running scsi drives (u2w 7200rpm) and
i see no improvement in zoneing over my ide friends so.... Here are my
thoughts: cpu and connect speed make a difference, but also how many hops
you have to get to there servers also does. Also I think (but not verified)
the ammont of ppl in the zone affects zone time. I think alot of the long
zone times are on there end, and not ours, but who the hell knows, they wont
tell us shit about anything.
