Hello

Today I install hdparm and test HDDs on my servers and get this data:
----------------
# hdparm -i /dev/hda

/dev/hda:

 Model=ST31000340NS, FwRev=SN06, SerialNo=9QJ5LWPL
 Config={ HardSect NotMFM HdSw>15uSec Fixed DTR>10Mbs RotSpdTol>.5% }
 RawCHS=16383/16/63, TrkSize=0, SectSize=0, ECCbytes=4
 BuffType=unknown, BuffSize=0kB, MaxMultSect=16, MultSect=16
 CurCHS=16383/16/63, CurSects=16514064, LBA=yes, LBAsects=268435455
 IORDY=on/off, tPIO={min:120,w/IORDY:120}, tDMA={min:120,rec:120}
 PIO modes:  pio0 pio1 pio2 pio3 pio4
 DMA modes:  mdma0 mdma1 mdma2
 UDMA modes: udma0 udma1 udma2
 AdvancedPM=no WriteCache=enabled
 Drive conforms to: unknown:  ATA/ATAPI-4 ATA/ATAPI-5 ATA/ATAPI-6 ATA/ATAPI-7

 * signifies the current active mode
----------------
# hdparm -Tt /dev/hda

/dev/hda:
 Timing cached reads:   8692 MB in  2.00 seconds = 4353.79 MB/sec
 Timing buffered disk reads:   12 MB in  3.09 seconds =   3.88 MB/sec
----------------

I think most important here it's "BuffSize=0kB" and "Timing buffered disk reads 
... 3.88 MB/sec" is so small.
This is link to official specification page. This hard drive contain 32MB 
buffer.
Also it's CentOS 5.4 on board and #uname -a => Linux A102 2.6.18-164.11.1.el5 
#1 SMP Wed Jan 20 07:32:21 EST 2010 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

In attach I put dmesg, dmidecode and df data.

Who can help me. Maby need some drivers o something other?
