OK...where exactly does one change the hdparms at? I'm a newbie at this...I got a "command not found" when I typed hdparm --help at the term. I see in dmesg where it says both drives are transferring at 33 MHz, but I cannot seem to find out how to change this. I assume, as well, that the CPU-Memory Bus speed is not set somewhere by default, i.e. I have to specify it runs at 266MHz?
