Hye there, i m a newbie configuring scsi drive (and i dont know black magic!) We have : two scsi drives on a Aha 2940U2 one is a Viking 9,1 gig U2 (/dev/sda) and the other Seagate 4 gig U2 (/dev/sdb) i run htparms, and I m really surprised by the results : /dev/sdb: Timing buffered disk reads: 32 MB in 6.28 seconds = 5.10 MB/sec 0.02user 0.39system 0:10.37elapsed 3%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 0maxresident)k 0inputs+0outputs (358major+265minor)pagefaults 0swaps /dev/sda Timing buffered disk reads: 32 MB in 2.46 seconds =13.01 MB/sec 0.00user 0.27system 0:06.54elapsed 4%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 0maxresident)k 0inputs+0outputs (354major+265minor)pagefaults 0swaps How results can be so differents ? What things I should check ? Is htparms a efficient benchmark ? (bonnie give me nearly same results) What can i improve ?
