Pick up PC DOS...you get Stacker 4.0 for free with it (costs $99
otherwise...DOS is $49) and it gives you 2.5X+ compression.  I have a 170 meg
drive compressed to 425 megs.....with only a 10% decrees in drive speed!  Not
bad at all!


You can also manipulate the size of your compressed/noncompressed dirves
without having to resetup the drive.  VERY nice :)
