Ah.  That's what the 540M drive is that I've been playing with warp on in the 
other room...
Not quite as capable as the somewhat newer Maxtor 1.2G that's in this box,  
or the 2.1G SCSI drive.
The 6.4G I picked up is a Maxtor,  as well.  They seem to do okay here.

A good bit more horsepower than I've got here,  unfortunately.  I *did* up 
this box from 8M to 16M before I even thought about installing Warp here,  
but from what I can see I'm going to have to take that up a bit further yet 
before I'll get decent performance out of it.
It's a 5x86/133.  I suppose a motherboard upgrade is probably going to be my 
next step,  down the road a ways...
