Subject: Dog slow IDE

Message-ID: <3C8CB3EB.8070704@nothing-on.tv> (raw)
For some reason the my IDE is running extremely slow (which accounts for
why this box feels so sluggish).
hdparm gives:
/dev/hda:
Model=Maxtor 53073U6, FwRev=DA6207V0, SerialNo=K607RFNC
Config={ Fixed }

IORDY=on/off, tPIO={min:120,w/IORDY:120}, tDMA={min:120,rec:120}

Both drives claim to be using UDMA if I read the above correctly.
However:
/dev/hda:
Timing buffered disk reads: 64 MB in 16.27 seconds = 3.93 MB/sec
/dev/hdb:
Timing buffered disk reads: 64 MB in 32.99 seconds = 1.94 MB/sec
1.94MB/sec is *way* to slow for a UDMA5 hard disk surely?
