This page lists people's benchmarks for HardDisk performance, so you can see if your Hardware/OperatingSystem setup is adequate or not. Feel free to add your benchmarks here.
We prefer to use bonnie++ for benchmarking "real-world" harddisk performance. hdparm just doesn't cut it.
Here's our preferred bonnie++ command line:
/usr/sbin/bonnie++ -n 128 -r <ramsize> -s <twice ramsize> -x 1
Some documentation suggests that you should use about 40 times the ramsize in your -s parameter, as opposed to 2 times the ramsize. This will obviously take longer, but should sidestep any cache improvements you might see which could influence your results. If you change your bonnie++ command line please make a note of it
If bonnie++ returns comma-separated output instead of a nicely formatted table as shown below, simply pass the comma separated output through
bon_csv2txt
which should have been bundled with bonnie++.
Please make a note of your system specification, in particular the disk IO subsystem, which OS, and which version of bonnie++ you are running.
If you get all +++++ results for the Create tests your disks are too fast to test. Meaningful results require the test to take longer than 500ms, increase the number of files used for the test with the -n commandline option.

XFS file creation is awful on this platform. I reran the tests several times and recreated the filesystem as well, no luck.
Try with ext3fs:

Much better. I skipped the per-char tests this time, and I had to increase the number of files to 1024 ( *1024) so that the file tests would run long enough to actually record a result. Over 1M random reads (stats) per second!
XFS issues look like barriers. Trying XFS again with nobarrier mount options, and with -r512M to speed the test up (only care about file tests, not bulk tests):
Filesystem: xfs -o nobarrier

File creation is better, but not as good as with ext3. File deletion is around the same as with ext3, as is file read.
