Can anyone point me to an article or some tips on my I should be setting |
| 2 |
in hdparm to tune my SATA setup to get some more thoroughput? I have 4 |
| 3 |
Seagate SATA drives plugged into an Escalade hardware Adapter running |
| 4 |
RAID 10. Here's what I am currently getting from HDParm: |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
localhost ~ # hdparm -Tt /dev/sda |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
/dev/sda: |
| 9 |
Timing cached reads: 3244 MB in 2.00 seconds = 1621.90 MB/sec |
| 10 |
Timing buffered disk reads: 150 MB in 3.04 seconds = 49.40 MB/sec |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
localhost ~ # hdparm /dev/sda |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
/dev/sda: |
| 15 |
readonly = 0 (off) |
| 16 |
readahead = 64 (on) |
| 17 |
geometry = 0/64/32, sectors = 500116226048, start = 0 |
| 18 |
|

I went through the man page, but its seems like everything there is |
| 20 |
geared towards IDE drives.(?) Or does it all apply to SATA? Thanks, I |
| 21 |
really appreciate it. :) |
