You can unban yourself if needed. It also sends me reports to investigate the ban.
DO NOT USE MOBILE / CGNAT DEVICES WHERE THE IP CHANGES CONSTANTLY!
At this time, it is unfortunately not possible to whitelist users when your IP changes constantly.
You may inadvertently get banned because a previous attack may have used the IP you are now on.
So I suggest people only use fixed IP address devices until I can think of a solution for this problem!

Indeed. That NCR chip has a theoretical data limit of 1.5MB/s, so the real top speed is around 1.2MB/s.
Intro retro computers since before they were retro...

Added code to the MiNT kernel (still there the last time I checked) + put together MiNTOS.
Collection now with added Macs, Amigas, Suns and Acorns.

Check out what my Falcon managed with RaSCSI, does it have a different chip to TT?

I don't know but the hardware specification for the NCR5380 says 1.5MB/s.

Maybe surprisingly, no. It uses the same NCR5380.

Which begs the question, what is the difference between SCSI and the later SCSI 2 standard that the Falcon uses?

Is it just the form factor, or was the command set changed, in which case, how was the NCR5380 to know the SCSI 2 command set?!

This chip was made in 1986, SCSI 2 wasnt introduced until ~1990.

Anyhow, did you get the TT SCSI drives working @Steve ?
