Low Buffer With Harddrive
« on: April 08, 2005, 06:26:00 PM »

i got a seagate 300g hd (st3300831a) on pc. Its been runing great up till a couple weeks ago. Its very slow with extracting with winrar or burning or checking par files. It used to take maybe 15 to 20 min to check and recover a 50x30 or so files now it takes  maybe 2 half hrs. same with burning iso from this drive i used to burn at 12x using pioneer a08 now only at 1x with maybe 5 different burning programs with like dvd decrypt saying no 0% device buffer, winrar also takes about 2 hrs to extract a 3 to 4 gig file. If anyone can help with info let me know

Thanks
