Subject:   slow hard disk transfer
Message-ID:  <200203301916.LAA08459@chamber.cco.caltech.edu>

hello all

i'm running 4.5-R on an abit KT7E (950 MHz, 512MB ram) with 4 ultra66 IDE adaptors and 8 segate
5400 rpm 80 gig disks. each disk is on it's own IDE channel. as far as bootime goes, each drive is
reconized in UDMA66 mode.

however, the transfer throughput on data between drives is incredibly poor - but the transfers from
a disk to the network flrit with the theoretical max throughput for the network.

if anyone has any thoughts i'd love to hear it
