**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sat May 02 02:59:57 2009 May 02 11:17:09 I have bought a western digital elements 1TB disk but I think the performance is rather _slow_. Hdparm shows me cached readings of 922kb/sec and buffered readings of 930kb/sec May 02 11:17:14 that is horrible slow, no? May 02 11:18:07 I have tested the disk on a windows computer and there I have 'great' performance (like 20mb/sec writing or so) May 02 19:11:56 hrhr - i was also rather disappointed when reading about the benchmarks made here: http://wiki.dns323.info/information:benchmarks of a rather fast dlink dns 323 May 02 19:12:44 but i think i will buy this device as it nicely supports debian and may contain two sata disks that i can operate as raid 1 without attaching external usb drives **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sun May 03 02:59:58 2009
