Yes, but I have a different disk: HTS726060M9AT00
# hdparm /dev/hda
/dev/hda:
multcount = 16 (on)
IO_support = 1 (32-bit)
unmaskirq = 0 (off)
using_dma = 1 (on)
keepsettings = 0 (off)
readonly = 0 (off)
readahead = 256 (on)
geometry = 65535/16/63, sectors = 117210240, start = 0
# hdparm -Tt /dev/hda
/dev/hda:
Timing buffer-cache reads: 1796 MB in 2.00 seconds = 897.69 MB/sec
Timing buffered disk reads: 100 MB in 3.01 seconds = 33.27 MB/sec
