XP Pro SP2.
In Device Manager/IDE Controllers/ Secondary Channel, when I run the speed
test for my Hard Drive (Serial ATA DMA) it says that the theoretical speed
is 150. The Burst speed on test is 113 and sustained speed is 58.
These test figures seem to me to be way short of the theoretical speed. Is
the theoretical speed that for an "ideal" HD, or is it the theoretical
speed for my actual HD?
Should I be worried, or are these results normal?
I don't seem to have any problems---just curious.
