/dev/hdb:
multcount = 16 (on)
IO_support = 1 (32-bit)
unmaskirq = 1 (on)
using_dma = 1 (on)
keepsettings = 0 (off)

Try using the -k1 & -u1 option as well. This prevents resetting across drive resets. Also
I have observed that once the capacity of the drive goes up the second value "Timing buffered
Disk reads" goes down slightly.Here are my machine values on an CPU/DRAM overclocked i810 board at UDMA5 40 GB HDD on an eighty conductor cable.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] netadmin]# /sbin/hdparm -Tt /dev/hda
/dev/hda: Timing buffer-cache reads: 128 MB in 0.90 seconds =156.22 MB/sec Timing buffered disk reads: 64 MB in 2.16 seconds = 29.63 MB/sec
