Hmm. That's odd. In the manual it says that it can do up to 4Mb per second.

(*) For those that require an explanation:
That means they don't even advertize that the thing can do better, no
they even SAY that it can only do 4Mb per second (sync). That was
really great stuff back then, but nowadays, you really need to be
able to do 10Mb per second AT LEAST.
