No, its probably not your CPU. There are known issues with the
HPT/366 controller under linux. I bet when you boot on a single
proc and you type hdparm -itT /dev/hde (or whatever your HD
is), you will notice in the 64MB transfer test you are still
getting around 3.x transfer rate and that actually ATA/66
is not working.
However, there is a fix for this. The 2.2.14 kernel
does not handle the patch well, so you will need
to download the 2.2.13 kernel for this to work.
This page is mainly for the Promise ATA/66 controller
but there is reference to the HPT/366 in it.
