The APDL Blitz IDE interface is the fastest thing you can put in your machine. Lightning fast, nearly 7 Mb/sec (A drive has been tested at a read speed of 8.2 Mb/sec and write speed of 7.3 Mb/sec).
Blitz works on any RiscPC or A7000 with a backplane. It has all the features of the highly acclaimed ARCIN interface but it's 32 bit so it's capable of much higher speeds. Now you can fit low cost EIDE drives and get superior speed to a 'fast' SCSI setup costing much more.
Although the Blitz is fastest with DMA it's capable of higher speeds than any other interface without it, too. In fact, it's faster without DMA, 4.2 to 4.4 Mb/sec, than some 'fast' SCSI interfaces with DMA. This makes it the ideal companion for a machine fitted with a Kinetic, which disables DMA.
n.b. Later cards from APDL are marked 32bit DMA EIDE Hard Drive Interfaces (ARCIN32)
