Hi,

> Heh, my T41 with the 40 GB 5400 rpm drive is about the same speed:
> hdparm -tT /dev/hda
> 
> /dev/hda:
>   Timing buffer-cache reads:   1820 MB in  2.00 seconds = 909.23 MB/sec
>   Timing buffered disk reads:  110 MB in  3.03 seconds =  36.25 MB/sec

Could you post your settings, please...i get only the following with the
same drive in a T23...or is this system bus/processor speed related?

 Timing buffer-cache reads:   736 MB in  2.01 seconds = 366.53 MB/sec
 Timing buffered disk reads:   62 MB in  3.09 seconds =  20.08 MB/sec

Andre.
