Hi,
I know this may be a silly question since it probably a hardware limitation,
but I'm running F7 and would like to know what I can do to increase the hard
drive seek time, if anything.
I have a pretty new SATA drive at 3GB/sec and it seems to have to seek longer
than I'd expect.
FWIW, the SATA spec is 3Gbits/sec and I believe that hdparm is reporting
MBytes/sec.
You're right, of course, but the data coming off the surface still isn't
going to do it at 3 Bits/sec.
Mainframes _do_ do 3 Gbytes/sec, and more;-)
