Win 95 included defragger is not a good option, it consolidates free space
more than truly defragging the system. Norton Utilities offers
customizability (it's a word because I say so). A separate hard drive
partition or hard drive helps as well.

Let's just say it has less noise. But if you spent the money on the CD-R,
you shouldn't hold back on the sound card.

A good card will have record levels for the inputs as well (Turtle Beach
multisound products).
Following this thread in to the present, does anyone have a utility for
extracting data off of CD-ROM readers (IDE or SCSI) other than DIDO? I'm
not copying music, it's for sampling and mixing (honest injun).
p.s.: could someone forward this to the movable parts list? I don't have
the address here.
