Rons Computer Videos | So what's the #fastest #storage device for your IDE-based #Macintosh #Computer? #benchmark @RonsCompVids | Uploaded April 2024 | Updated October 2024, 5 hours ago.
Do you have an IDE-based Performa or Quadra Macintosh? Did the drive die? Mine did! So I figured now was as good a time as any to do some exhaustive benchmarking of some different IDE replacement options for those machines!

ATA133 IDE drives, SSDs, NVMEs, CF and SD cards... it's all tested - AND tested against multiple formatting software options (Apple's Drive Setup 1.7.8 and FWB's Hard Disk Toolkit v 3)!

The complete analysis is available here:
