Hi all, I'm trying to "clean" a disc before selling them:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/da0 Do I make something wrong because the transfer rate is only 60932 bytes/sec??? These are 60 kbytes/sec, slower than my internet connection!!! :( I tried to increase the block size, with bs=32768 I get 3416071 bytes/sec. But this is still very poor. The system is a PIII 800MHz and a SCSI-3 disc in single user mode booted from FreeBSD release 5.4 live-cd. Any ideas how to analyze this? Thanks in advance! greetings, Sebastian Pahlke _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
