Karl, I use a Seagate 320 gig ES SATA drive. This is a 3 Gb/sec drive BUT - it was shipped with a jumper installed limiting it to half that rate, and this rate is in any case a very optimistic one. Using hdparm as suggested consistently gives me 78 MB/sec. That seems to be as good as it gets. Also this is a very artificial figure, I have an old (about ten years) 9 gig SCSI drive that does about half that. It seems that the recent addition of NCQ to SATA drives makes more of an improvement in heavily loaded scenarios but quantifying this is not simple or unambiguous. I want to try reconfiguring this setup in raid 0 but won't be able to do so for a while. I know that another recent Seagate drive, their 400G ATA gives transfer rates using hdparm -tT of about 50 MB/sec. ------------------------------ Message: 4 Date: Fri, 28 Sep 2007 16:10:19 -0500 From: "Arthur Pemberton" <pemboa@gmail.com> Subject: Re: How to rip a DVD To: "For users of Fedora" <fedora-list@redhat.com> Message-ID: <16de708d0709281410m5dfa0e01s1856c5ab8489bf59@mail.gmail.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 On 9/27/07, Marcelo Magno T.
