what 'hdparm -tT' is good for SATA HDD?
 

Hi!

I see, "good" tells nothing. I mean cases with most currently spreaded
HDDs on workstations. Say, with SAMSUNG HD401LJ I have ~3700 MB/sec and
~65 MB/sec. Is it "normal"/expected?

I think for SATA needs this:

root@smoker / # eix sdparm
* sys-apps/sdparm
Available versions: 0.97 0.98 ~0.99 1.00 1.01 1.02
Homepage: http://sg.torque.net/sg/sdparm.html
Description: Utility to output and modify parameters on a
SCSI device, like hdparm


root@smoker / #


I could be wrong tho.

I'm sure, 'sdparm' is not intended to be used by "ordinary" users: you
need to know every atom of your hardware protocols to use the tool :-)
