I get only /dev/sda: Timing buffer-cache reads: 128 MB in 0.74 seconds =172.97 MB/sec Timing buffered disk reads: 64 MB in 1.55 seconds = 41.29 MB/sec which seems to be slow compared to the numbers above - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-raid" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
