I dowloaded a Hard disk spped test called HD Tach

http://www.simplisoftware.com/Public...request=HdTach

This program tells me this for my HD (Raptor):
Random access : 8.1 ms
CPU utilization: 44%
Average Read: 10 MB
Burst Speed: 11.3

This program tells me this for my nefew HD (Barracuda 250G):
Random access : 13.6ms
CPU utilization: 2%
Average Read: 56.8 MB
Burst Speed: 241 MB/s

What is going on?

Random access : 15.5ms
CPU utilization: 1%
Average Read: 48.9 MB
Burst Speed: 116 MB/s
