slow sdi disks

Hey guys, I've been using sdi2hd and sdi loader in the embedded development
kit for a while.....I don't know what's going on but when I build a image to
an sdi disk it takes a good hour and a half if it doesn't freeze, most of the
time it freezes on COM +, but when I do it straight to a folder on my
desktop, its about 15 min max.....I know the memory/processor isn't an issue
on my developemnt machine, I uninstalled and reinstalled the sdi disk
driver....does anyone have any way to speed this up or a solution? thanks
 
that means I can no longer just dismount the sdi image and use sdi2hd to
extract it... Btw, it happens also if I build directly to the hd then
attempt to copy files over to the sdi image...
 
Mark,

Sorry, I was not clear in my reply.
I was only suggesting to use the RAM disk for testing purposes. This way you know how fast you can build it on to the RAM disk.

Since even just copying works slow on your SDI image disk that is probably the SDI driver problem
I can only suggest you to take a look at the Disk Manager and SetupApi.log files on your dev machine to see if anything strange is
coming from sdi.sys.
Also, check Event Viewer for related errors.
