this is really sad... my IBM Ultrastar 9ZX is getting <1800 on this benchmark.... I know the drive is old (more than 5 years), but it is a 10020rpm scsi drive... it has served me well and I think it is time to replace it....

my new 250GB Seagate 7200.8 gets almost 9000

Anything I can do to breathe life into this old SCSI of mine... it is the last SCSI HDD that I have and use... all my other SCSI drives are CD/DVD based...

i keep getting a score around 500-600...wtf? i have a 7200rpm 80gb seagate barracuda with 8mb of cache (name is ST380013AS in device mgr.) i haven't noticed any problems, maybe this test and my drive don't work well together
