I have seen this problem solved by just adding ide0-noprobe ideprobe=0 to the kernel line in the menu.lst of grub at least in in some model of HP desktops. adn a reboot of course.
I have seen performance jump from 10MB/s to 50+MB/s in the hdparm -tT /dev/<devname>
No bios changes/upgrades etc.
I've got the same experience with HP DC7800 and DC7900's.
CentOS needs these boot options, newer Fedora's don't.
