I'm not a big fan of using hdparm for real benchmarking or comparing 
things but for the sake of completeness.


/dev/sde:
  Timing cached reads:   24004 MB in  2.00 seconds = 12025.18 MB/sec
  Timing buffered disk reads:  982 MB in  3.00 seconds = 326.98 MB/sec

This is on a dual:  Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5645  @ 2.40GHz with

05:00.0 Serial Attached SCSI controller: LSI Logic / Symbios Logic 
SAS2008 PCI-Express Fusion-MPT SAS-2 [Falcon] (rev 02)
