How does the performance compare to UltraSatan and CosmosEx?

The problem with any ACSI device (IIRC) is the mythical "Bad DMA". I assume that this device is as likely to suffer from issues as any other ACSI device? For those reading, it's an as yet undiagnosed issue with the DMA controller chip and grounds/termination on some ST motherboards. I personally have never seen this, just read about the problem.



This device reads and writes twice faster than Satan.
A savestate of 524 KB takes 6 seconds to be written.

Read speed varies from 250 to 300 KB/s



UltraSatan and CosmosEx are ultimate state of the art, but from an Atari user point of view, practically there is not much difference.
