2.6 ghz p4 / 80 g seagate drive / xp home / drive 50%
full / defrag often / ran seagate utilities - reported
very good numbers " read and write etc" from dos but have
poor performance from windows xp. sequential read and
sequential write scores are around 19 megs per sec. (
very low) my work pc 1.6 ghz p4 does almost twice the
data. Solutions? Possible format etc?
