   Fujitsu 1.2 GB drive	   = 1.9 MB/sec

   With the stock Quantum 105 I was getting a peak of 800-900 KB/sec, and
   with the Quantum 170 I replaced the 105 with I get 1 MB/sec, and the CDC
   (aka Imprimis, now aka Seagate) Wren III gets 975 KB/sec.

Just out of curiosity, how big are those partition, and where they
newly formatted? Going from a small, empty partition to a large, full
one I see a 30% drop in speed.
