Hi!

I see, "good" tells nothing. I mean cases with most currently spreaded 
HDDs on workstations. Say, with SAMSUNG HD401LJ I have ~3700 MB/sec and 
~65 MB/sec. Is it "normal"/expected?

I think for SATA needs this:

root@smoker / # eix sdparm
* sys-apps/sdparm
     Available versions:  0.97 0.98 ~0.99 1.00 1.01 1.02
     Homepage:            http://sg.torque.net/sg/sdparm.html
     Description:         Utility to output and modify parameters on a 
SCSI device, like hdparm

root@smoker / #


I could be wrong tho.

I'm sure, 'sdparm' is not intended to be used by "ordinary" users: you 
need to know every atom of your hardware protocols to use the tool :-)
