Hi,

> Hi, Looking around, I saw a IBM hitachi 80 gb 4200 rpm hdd with 8 mb buffer. Is it possible somehow to exploit the 8 mb buffer for the archos? if so, we would have a unit with 10 mb without the 8mb mod!

The Toshiba GAX Series has 16 MB Cache, too. (But 5400 RPM and is very

THe only question is, would the drive spin up when it was idle and
become a new request if the Cache contain the data?
