Is that close enough to 30MB/s?
It's less than my ancient PII-450 gets with an almost-as-old
66 mHZ IDE card. A 2.4 gHZ P4 that should be closer to your
specs gets 60MB/s. Do you see something like:
hda: 234441648 sectors (120034 MB) w/8192KiB Cache, CHS=16383/255/63,
UDMA(100)
if you look at 'dmesg | less'? (The UDMA and speed being
the relevant part).
# dmesg | grep UDMA
hda: 78165360 sectors (40020 MB) w/2048KiB Cache, CHS=65535/16/63, UDMA(100)
hdc: ATAPI 48X CD-ROM CD-R/RW drive, 2048kB Cache, UDMA(33)
Looks more or less equivalent to what you have.

You have found the bank of Larn.
I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you.
I speak only for myself, and I am unanimous in that!
