Interesting. I have a 4 unit NEC changer (IDE) and a SCSI CDRW that
seem to get along fine with no delays. What I find objectionable - and
it may be the same bug - is that all the connected LAN drives are
scanned resulting in really annoying slowdowns at every update. This
also occurs whether the LAN drives are displayed or not.
Adding to that I was using the Theseus/2 methods which FP12 killed, so
it's back to 3.30 for me, too.
