EasyDrive from Quality Computers comes with an EXCELLENT optimizer that makes a hard drive's reads sooo fast (I not sure how they did it) that it's blinding! DO NOT use it on a volume that has extended files (GS/OS applications.) But volumes that have only p8 programs and data files are perfect and it's fast! Also, Universe Master WAS going to have it... anybody know what the status of UM is? l8r! -Auri Man
