That's quite a bit better than mine, and I am pretty sure I am the same
vintage or newer (purchased this summer), but I'm getting barely half
that speed:
Timing buffered disk reads: 58 MB in 3.10 seconds = 18.70 MB/sec
How can I find out what disk is in this beast and try to track down some
of my missing performance?
hdparm -I /dev/hda (or cat /proc/ide/hda/model)
The FUJITSU MHV2100AH in my Dell i9300 gives 57.5 MB/sec with hdparm.
Note that hdparm does not read in the most efficient manner
(so the drive is likely even faster than that),
and writing to drives is normally slower than reading.
Cheers
