Hi!
I have a server with 11 disks.
Some of the disks are slow, no matters if it is on raidcard or mobo controller.
The disk are:
3xWD5003AZEX (2 works ok, 1 is slow r/w, all of them are on raidcard)
3xST2000DM001 (all of them working fine, mobo controller)
1xWD3200AVVS (as slow as the 'bad' one WD5003AZEX, mobo controller)
1xWD2500AAJS (works fine, mobo controller)
1xWD1002FAEX (works fine, mobo controller)
1xSV300S37A (works fine,raid controller)
Other components:
MOBO: Asus P5Q Deluxe / ASROCK 960GMU3S3
CPU: Core2Quad Q9550 / Phenom2 X4 960T
RAM: 2x2GB 1066MHz / 1x8GB 1333MHz
PSU: 550W XFX / 750W TT (just for testing)
RAIDCARD: HP Smart Array P400
System: Ubuntu 12.04.03 LTS / Debian 7

All of the hardwares were replaced (the sata cables too), only the HDD-s are the same.
The two slow disk were tested at home, and they made a good result under Windows.
I'm out of ideas..
Thanks for your help, and sorry for my bad english.
