These guys are in for a big shock then. A CD drive can only deliver raw data a
150K per sec, by the time the computer gets it. It is closer to 130K per sec. A
SCSI HD should be deliving 600-800K per sec, a re-seek is meaning less at that
speed. And on top of that the SCSI simulation will not deliver the P-Q
subchannels. Having worked for the past 2 months on a CD-ROM design time I can
vouch for those figures.
