Please excuse this if its a configuration issue:
The IDE drives i have are showing ~4-5MB/sec with hdparm in 2.3.51, they usually
show 19-21 in kernel 2.2.x
cold:~% /sbin/hdparm -c1 -d1 -k1 -m16 -W1 /dev/hda
/dev/hda:
setting 32-bit I/O support flag to 1
setting multcount to 16
setting using_dma to 1 (on)
HDIO_SET_DMA failed: Operation not permitted
setting keep_settings to 1 (on)
setting drive write-caching to 1 (on)
multcount = 16 (on)
I/O support = 1 (32-bit)
using_dma = 0 (off)
keepsettings = 1 (on)
