I benchmarked my hard drive using SiSoft, it gave the following performance compared to other drives:
My hard drive: 2004
UDMA66: 13000
UDMA33: 8000
UDMA: 6500
EIDE 4GB: 3500
My system is
Maxtor DiamondMax 60GB
AM7266 running 1.4 GHz TB, BIOS 1005
512 RAM
video 8500DV
win2k + SP2, via 4in1 4.35
So As you can see my ATA100 is very poor performer. I'm thinking I should be getting 17000+ not 2007!
So I downloaded powermax from the maxtor site and it passed all of the tests.
Even though I updated the BIOS and the drivers I'm thinking it might still be a driver issue. Could it be cable? the drive itself? I'm hoping it's a software solution.
Thanks for any help.
