I found out today that my disk dat transfer rate is only 5.9, which makes it a bottleneck, a chokepoint. These are the other scores:

Processor: 7.2
Memory (RAM): 7.2
Graphics: 7.5
Gaming graphics: 7.5
Primary hard disk: 5.9

So, obviously I should improve my hard disk. This one is Western Digital WDC WD30 SCSI Disk Drive. I need a disk drive with a subscore of at least 7.2 - 7.5, in order to eliminate the bottleneck. Any suggestions? What should I buy?

If you're really intent on improving your WEI score, then the only way that you're going to get your disk drive into the 7.x range is to get a SSD.
