Subject: SCSI disk speed inconsistency
Date: Mon, 03 Oct 2005 14:36:51 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4340F4AB.3070107@cdac.in> (raw)

I get a read speed of 69MBps from my SCSI disk and a write speed of 
49MBps from the same.
An IOMeter benchmark on the net says that 68MBps is the sustained speed 
for a write.

Could someone tell me how to increase my IO speed?

I have a Linux Kernel 2.6 in a RedHat Enterprise Linux WS 4 and I used 
the foll.
Read : sg_dd if=/dev/sdb  of=/dev/null bs=262144 count=1024 dio=1
Write: sg_dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdb  bs=262144 count=1024 dio=1
