Hello, I had a R201 running in 4.6 i386 stable..I was told this configuration was very new.. so I got a new box this time its a PowerEdge is R200 without any special PCI SATA controller. With 2 SATA II Hard Disks. BIOS Sata setting is set to be in ATA Mode (its either this or OFF).
Either after all this change, and a clean install the IO is 55% greater then all my other machines. For example a userland recompile takes 55min , vrs the same proc and ram on another box is 35 min. Below is my dmesg.. which I dont see any flag?? Possibly there must be some incompatibility with the hard disk?
