Ok, I'll try set queue_depth to 1 to see if there's any improvement. btw,
the same disk connected to sil3132 controller has no problem at all with
queue_depth = 31, I got over 100MB/s for hdparm, dd, etc test with
ST3500320AS + sil3132. So I assume the problem would be ahci.
Thanks a lot.

Hi
I have some problem. Try set queue_depth in "1" for disks, it disables NCQ
and the transfer rate
has returned to 100MB/S. It's ST3500320AS problem with NCQ implementation (I
think :-))
for i in sda sdb sdd sdf ; do
echo "1" > /sys/block/${i}/device/queue_depth
done
