Those are pretty typical speeds in my experience. I usually get a good
burst of over 100 and then it settles down between 20 to 40 MB's per
second. Like you I feel that this is pitiable performance and don't
understand why my internal SATA to SATA speeds are no better than file
transfers over my network. Anybody with any ideas on that? My mobo's are
all current and I'm using a mix of Vista and Windows 7.

So if you've seen my recent post about my secondary HDD issues you'll
know that I'm transferring a bunch of files from my USB 2.0 external
enclosure (I'm pretty sure it's 2.0 btw) to my newly installed (and
apparently now working fine) WD5000BEKT which is a WD SCorpio Black 7200
RPM 2.5" HD, apparently using SATA I internally based on the dock I have
it in...
So I got a rock-solid 28.5 MBytes/sec on my first 16 gigs of data (mp3s)
and now I'm getting a rock-solid 24.5 MBytes/sec on misc system files
I've backed up. Multiply those by 8 to get Mbits/sec (if that's even
necessary when talking HD transfer speeds), and it's ~220-200 Mbps or
so...
So is that a good transfer speed? What's my bottleneck? Is there any
way to improve it, or not with my current system and it's innards... I
just figured there must've been folks here who've looked to
tweak/improve that kind of transfer so I thought I leverage that
knowledge! ;)
