Hi,
here are the results of the tests done on my
System:
1.) Conner CFS450A IDE Master
dd if=/dev/rsd0c of=/dev/null bs=1024k count=10
10+0 records in
10+0 records out
10485760 bytes transferred in 8 secs (1310720 bytes/sec)
2.) Conner CFS450A IDE Slave
dd if=/dev/rsd1c of=/dev/null bs=1024k count=10
10+0 records in
10+0 records out
10485760 bytes transferred in 8 secs (1310720 bytes/sec)
3.) Quantum LPS360 SCSI-2 asynchron
dd if=/dev/rsd2c of=/dev/null bs=1024k count=10
10+0 records in
10+0 records out
10485760 bytes transferred in 5 secs (2097152 bytes/sec)
4.) Quantum Lightning 720 SCSI-2 asynchron
dd if=/dev/rsd3c of=/dev/null bs=1024k count=10
10+0 records in
10+0 records out
10485760 bytes transferred in 3 secs (3495253 bytes/sec)
5.) Internal devices
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/null bs=1024k count=10
10+0 records in
10+0 records out
10485760 bytes transferred in 5 secs (2097152 bytes/sec)
The results are very close to that what sysinfo would
give me on ADOS.
System:
Amiga 4000-40 25Mhz 16Mb
Kernel NetBSD-1.0 + mw-1.0a + fastlane-950130
Z3-Fastlane SCSI-controller
Quantum LPS360
Quantum Lightning 720
Toshiba XM3401B
Wangtek 5150ES
Internal IDE-controller
2xConner CFS450A
