/proc/interrupts looks like this:
CPU0
0: 17319250 XT-PIC timer
1: 85980 XT-PIC keyboard
2: 0 XT-PIC cascade
5: 1084144 XT-PIC ide3, usb-uhci, usb-uhci
6: 811 XT-PIC floppy
9: 1284463 XT-PIC mga@PCI:1:0:0
10: 142416 XT-PIC eth0
11: 8296678 XT-PIC eth1, C-Media PCI CM8738
12: 385915 XT-PIC PS/2 Mouse
15: 7 XT-PIC ide1

I would like to make a correction to my original post. In that post I said
that the drives are "masters" on their own controller. This was false.
They share a controller (CMD 649) with the Maxtor drive being "master" and
the IBM drive being "slave". To test if this was the problem, I reran the
tests (see URL below) with the IBM drive completely disconnected. I didn't
notice any difference.
I collected my benchmarks and tests into a simple webpage to avoid cluttering
this list. Hopefully someone will see something obvious that I've
misconfigured.
