Unfortunately the fastest speed I could obtain was about 70 kBytes/sec which seems pretty poor to me. When I asked the M-Systems support the answers were not really helpfull so far. = Does anybody of you guys know, how to speed it up? I'm using ext2 at present, will another fs be faster? I would be even glad if someone told me it can't go faster so I can stop bothering with DOC and try something better. Thanks in advance for any helpfull hint Holger -- = =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D= =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D= =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D Holger Friedrich MAZeT GmbH mailto:friedrich@mazet.de branch office Jena Phone: +49 3641 280954 G=F6schwitzer Stra=DFe 32 07745 Jena Germany Visit our website: http://www.MAZeT.de =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D= =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D= =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
