The model value gained with `hdparm -i` is what you use where you have
Seagate as below...
# hdparm -i /dev/hda

Are you running it under 2.4.21?
I haven't really tuned anything for this. The newer 2.4 kernels mostly
optimize the disk paramaters. Presently I've got a 120GB WD disk in the
box. hdparm revels:
/dev/hda:
Timing buffer-cache reads: 128 MB in 0.15 seconds =853.33 MB/sec
Timing buffered disk reads: 64 MB in 1.42 seconds
I've got 2.4.21 and the IDE/DMA seems to be fine.

Do you have a good quality, dma capable cable?
