Re my prev. comments. I decided to explore this through a process of elimination. The PC had 3 X 1T SATA HDDs (WD, Seagate, Samsung). There is 1 Seagate 320G ATA/IDE, 1 X DVD writer (IDE) and 1 X DVD Writer (SATA).
I took all drives out, leaving only the boot drive (1T Seagate SATA). Progressively I re-introduced all the HDDs/DVDs starting with the SATA drives. Large file transfers realises in excess of 32mbps. This is much better than I was getting and therefore I assume it to be OK. Then, when I plugged the ATA/IDE DVD in the problems started again. I tried a couple of other IDE HDDs and DVDs with the same result. I changed the ribbon cable, checked settings for optimum. The problem remained. If I disconnect the IDE device/s SATA performance is OK. ASUS M2N-VM DV MOBO, nForce 430 chipset, I think. Not using RAID. BTW, even my external eSATA docking station works great now. Hope this helps someone.
