Speed up USB-Harddisks

[An3Azz]

When I try the above solution MUT hangs, and my usb drive won't mount. The only solution is to reboot the machine. I run puppy 1.09CE

[MU: As my Notebook just has an USB 1.1 -port, I also bought a PCMCIA to USB 2.0-adapter (Sitecom USB 2.0 PC Card CB-003V2 ;30 Euro).]

Funny, found the same one. It doesn't fit well in the pcmcia-slot, now it's OK. And the ehci-hcd-module does the job.

I looked for a filesystem-benchmark, found some source code, but I don't compile yet, tiny computer.

Anyone know where to download a nice fs-benchmark-dotpup?

does hdparm work with that device?

for example, to benchmark a hard drive, hda:

hdparm -Tt /dev/hda

for help, type:

hdparm --help
