Is this one of the new 4096-bytes-per-sector Seagate drives? If so,
you need to do some research around the 'net to find recommended
procedures for aligning partitions. without partitions properly
aligned (so that they start on a 4096-byte boundary) things are
said to get veeeerrrrrrry sloooooooowwwwwww (though I have no personal
experience of it, so I can't speak to HOW slow.)
