Hi,
I was wanting to run the equivalent of "hdparm -Tt /dev/hda" except on a SATA hard disk. What is the equivalent command for an SATA drive?
I was wanting to see what kind of speed I am getting on the SATA drive.
thanks,
Jerry

I've never been a fan of hdparm's speed testing. 'bonnie++ -f' is probably the quickest and most analogous.

SATA's are recognised as SCSI so you need to run this for /dev/sda
If you are not sure what SATA's are connected you can do: hdparm -tT /dev/sd[abcd]
