Default slow PATA disk in Centos

In article ,

hdparm shows the drive is running in UDMA5, which is ATA100 instead of
maximum ATA133, but is way faster than 4 MB/s
The SMART data shows no problems with the drives.


Replace the cable, make sure the drive is set to cable select and is on
the end of the cable.

Post the results of 3 runs of "hdparm -Tt /dev/hdX" where X refers to
your Deskstar drive.
