Writing faster than reading?
I have conducted a couple of tests in ATTO
My drives are scoring higher in writing than reading, is this normal?
The drives are a WD800JB and aWD1200JB.
I have tested on both the SATA and PATA controller.
The test pictured is performed on the WD1200JB on the SATA controller.

At 32 mb you should hit 50,000 or in taht range anyway.

If the drive is empty, read scores are higher,
Half full even scores,
full write scores high.
But as the others said, that score is worryingly slow. Did you have anything running when you ran the bench?

I think I have found the flaw.
I had no SATA driver installed in devicemanager the SATA is labelled as ST3MP28 SCSI controller.
I think it would help with the right drivers installed.
I have also tested my other drive a WD800JB it scored four to five times higher.
I will post a screenshot when I have defragmented the drive.
That looks better doesn't it?
It is the driver from the install cd do not know what version.
But the scores are improved a lot.
Bench on WD1200JB with the proper driver on SATA controller
Get yourself some tweaking utilities (like Power Strip) and see if you can crank up that latency.

Then it was a good thing that I found my driver disk.
Now I will mess a bit with the drivers and the latency and see what I can come up with.
Can you give me some reference results?
