Erm... Well, no, I don't really care. ;-] >From last months æWhat are your "hdparm -Tt /devhda" results?" thread, I already know my results are slow. I also gather that hdparm isn't as accurate as bonnie++. What I want to know is why they are so slow, and if I can fix it. The error message "Hmmmn... Suspicious results" concerns me - can I fix it..? Last month's thread of the ENTIRE group posting their hdparm results got tedious - this group is busy enough already, so can we NOT start that again, please..? Thanks, Stroller. -- Enjoyed this post?
