All,
I am running Fedora 7 on laptop with Intel Core 2 Duo machine with a
Sata Disk.
# lsmod | grep ata
ata_piix 25541 4
ata_generic 17861 0
libata 131689 2 ata_piix,ata_generic
scsi_mod 165241 4 sr_mod,sg,libata,sd_mod
The hdparm reports a slow disk.
]# hdparm -Tt /dev/sda
/dev/sda:
Timing cached reads: 5222 MB in 2.00 seconds = 2617.12 MB/sec
Timing buffered disk reads: 102 MB in 3.02 seconds = 33.82 MB/sec
Wondering if there is a way to improve the SATA disk performance.
Thanks in advance
Srikanth
