Re: Hard disk slows linux system

| hdparm -d1 -c3 -m16 -u1 /dev/hda
|
in the same way, (added -a, -X, -W)
hdparm -m 16 -a 1 -c 3 -d 1 -X 69 -p -u 1 -W 1 /dev/hda
-X 69 : 64 (ultra dma) + dma mode (hdparm -I)(5) =69
You
can find out the number to use for -m by using -i and reading MaxMultSect.
-d 1 dma
-m 16 multiple sector count
-c 3 32 bit access I/O support
-u 1 interupt masking
-a 1 read ahead
-W 1 write cache
-p autodetect pio mode if bios is broken
"works for me"(TM) ;-)
