Really bad HDTach scores - can't figure this out..

[Medea]

I installed a brand new DiamondMax Plus 30gigs hard drive a couple of weeks ago. Just ran HD Tach and my scores are:

Read burst speed - 50.7 mbps
Random access time - 17.5 ms
Read speed (max) - 39113 0kps

I'm running Win2k right now. Primary IDE disk is showing as Ultra DMA mode.

Any ideas...?

What chipset? (specificly, what Southbridge?)

 

[Medea]

Abit kt7-RAID mobo - believe the lastest via 4-in-1 drivers are v. 4.29.

 

[Medea]

Frosty - to be a little more specific, the mobo's chipset is VIA (KT133) /VIA 686A - ultra RAID DMA 100 - High Point HTP370 IDE Controller.

CPU is an AMD 1gig.

Bump for suggestions..

Are you running it on the Highpoint controller
or the regular interface?
