Yes. I tried each disc three times, and here are the values look
consistent with each other.

$ sudo /sbin/hdparm -t /dev/hda

/dev/hda:
  Timing buffered disk reads:  110 MB in  3.02 seconds =  36.43 MB/sec
  Timing buffered disk reads:  112 MB in  3.04 seconds =  36.82 MB/sec
  Timing buffered disk reads:  112 MB in  3.03 seconds =  37.02 MB/sec

$ sudo /sbin/hdparm -t /dev/hdb

/dev/hdb:
  Timing buffered disk reads:  168 MB in  4.06 seconds =  41.42 MB/sec
  Timing buffered disk reads:  168 MB in  4.03 seconds =  41.65 MB/sec
  Timing buffered disk reads:  168 MB in  4.12 seconds =  40.80 MB/sec

Here's /var/log/messages

]$ sudo grep hd[ab] /var/log/messages
