I'm using WDC 320AAKS S-ATA hardisks, still getting 88 score on X-Bench.

 

All real machintosh score above 100.

 

 

 

Do they use special driver (kext)?

I check my Extensions on System profiler, it shows i'm only using AppleGenericPCATA.kext

Do real mac used the same? or other S-ATA driver?

Do not test disk with XBench open Actvity Monitor and make your own test (copy some big file) 60 mb/s is a very good read write speed

 

For example a sata Maxtor 300 Gb give 118 with xbench and a WDC 500 Gb give 60 but they read & write at about the same speed

Just upgraded to iATKOS.

 

Everything works great, except my HD are constantly spinning and when I copy a big folder and open activity monitor

to see rates I get 30 MB/s..

 

Any ideas?

 

 

Also, the whole system hiccups once in a while, every 20 minutes or so.. the rainbow comes on for about a minute and then everythings fine..

 

Would appreciate any clues as to what is happening.

 

Thanks.
