Changes in my ATTO benches?

When I first got my new laptop, I ran ATTO after installing and updating the OS, with it being defragged with XP's defrag program. Since then, I've installed Diskeeper 8, with it using the "set and forget" settings. This morning I ran ATTO again and my benches were better, with the read benches being a whole lot better. I didn't do anything special when running either bench, just the normal bootup apps running. Did Diskeeper make this much difference in optimizing my hard drive or is this some kind of anomaly. The first bench posted is my orginal ATTO and the second bench is the one I just ran this morning. BTW, the drive is a 2.5" Hitachi 60 gig, 7200 rpm drive.

    change it back to a 32mb length and retest it so it match's the first tests parameters. You can't compare the test results unless you keep the options the same. No single ide or scsi drive in the world hits 90,000 without running a caching controller like mine. I hit 300,000 but its not testing the drive. Its testing the cache.

    OK, this looks much more like it's supposed to. I'll have to remember to check that setting when I run it later on too. :eek2:
