I don't know why is happening. I read this morning that it will be<br>
about the disk transfer rate. So I check my drive.<br>
<br>
I have a Western Digital Green 2TB drive:<br>
<br>
Model Number: WDC WD20EARS-00MVWB0<br>
Serial Number: WD-XXXXXXXXXXXX<br>
Firmware Revision: 51.0AB51<br>
Transport: Serial, SATA 1.0a, SATA II Extensions, SATA Rev<br>
2.5, SATA Rev 2.6<br>
<br>
I format with XFS this way:<br>
<br>
mkfs.xfs -l size=64m -d agcount=4 -i attr=2,maxpct=5 -L mythfs /dev/sdb1<br>
<br>
I mount it thi way:<br>
<br>
# cat /etc/fstab<br>
/dev/sdb1 /mnt/myth xfs noatime,nodiratime,allocsize=512m 0 0<br>
<br>
I execute the test and this is the result:<br>
<br>
# hdparm -tT /dev/sdb<br>
<br>
/dev/sdb:<br>
Timing cached reads: 1326 MB in 2.00 seconds = 662.71 MB/sec<br>
Timing buffered disk reads: 368 MB in 3.00 seconds = 122.66 MB/sec<br>
<br>
Are thoose numbers correct? I need to configure it other way?<br>
<br>
I have no other machine to compare the result. I save the recordings<br>
and livetv on same drive.<br>
<br>
Thanks for your help and best regards.<br>
