Hi
I have problem with SATA disks at my Sunfire v245 and its lsi controller they are very slow.
So I test it with dd and while dd in a nother terminal i see dstat results of sda:
Copy from ramdisk to sda.
=== Test ext4 ===
DD
root@outpost:/ramdisk# dd if=debian-7.4.0-sparc-netinst.iso of=/root/test.dd
