Package: hdparm Version: 6.9-1 Severity: normal
Hi, This is the output of hdparm -tT /dev/sda: Timing cached reads: 1640 MB in 2.00 seconds = 820.03 MB/sec Timing buffered disk reads: 114 MB in 3.05 seconds = 37.43 MB/sec The 'buffered disk reads' performance is ok (100GB 2.5" disk) but the 'cached reads' performance is too slow (Pentium M 750 1.86 Ghz). Using the (K)ubuntu live-cd I get +- 1650 MB/sec. I tried this on 3 different laptops. Any ideas what the reason might be ?
