Sorry for not being more clear before. I would like to know
1) If I am benchmarking the right way?
2) Is what I am getting is the standard speed?
3) If no then is this problem OS related or Device related?
Some extra things I would like to point out about the hdd:-
1) It is partitioned to ntfs by default.
2) Its model no is WDBZFP0010BBK
