Subject: Dog slow IDE
Date: Mon, 11 Mar 2002 13:40:59 +0000 [thread overview]
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 }
RawCHS=16383/16/63, TrkSize=0, SectSize=0, ECCbytes=57

CurCHS=16383/16/63, CurSects=16514064, LBA=yes, LBAsects=60030432
IORDY=on/off, tPIO={min:120,w/IORDY:120}, tDMA={min:120,rec:120}

/dev/hdb:

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?
