Hi there, is there any place on the net where the most appropriate HD settings (Hdparm) are discussed and recorded? It might be useful to build a database of the disks and their settings, wouldn't it? I could start by submitting mine: Vendor Model Capacity hdparm settings Note -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Quantum EL 7.6GB hdparm -p -c1 -d0 -m16 -W1 about 11MB/s IBM 4.3GB hdparm -p -c1 -d0 -m16 -W1 about 7,7MB/s Please let me now whether already exists a place hosting such information, I couldn't find anything on both www.linux-ide.org and manufacturer home pages (e.g. quantum). Best regards, Stefano Papini
