texte = If you have a look at the results you will see our two PC'sThe first one is an Athlon 1800+ and the second is an Athlon 2100+The speed differences for the chips is nominal but the speed difference forthe Hard Disks is HUGE.The 1800+ was running a 5400 rpm ATA66 Seagate whereas the 2100+ is runninga 7200rpm ATA133 Maxtor. The ATA133 is almost 4 times faster than theATA66...This could be something for you to look at.The other thing is that the only thing these hard drives had on them at thetime of the test was a 5 min old install of windows and webcat and that waspretty much it.Maybe a good old fashion format/reinstall or even a defrag would help.On 12/8/02 12:29 PM, Stuart Tremain
