I've just measured my drive reading time and found out that it's
3.5-4.9MB/s (measured in Midnight Commander by copying a not yet cached
file to /dev/null). Then I plugged a USB drive (an HDD box) and tried
checking, it's 15-20MB/s, this isn't funny! I have ASUS F3Jp laptop (I
have no settings in my BIOS) and now I see this was the reason of of bug
#126274 and bug #131094 at least in my case.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo hdparm -i /dev/sda

I don't understand this, since I see udma5 marked as active in hdparm's
output. (?)
