Hey guys,
I need some help here. I have a 500gb 7200rpm seagate HD. Before installing windows 7, my hard drive reads and writes at around 90mb/s. After installing windows 7 on bootcamp. My OSX performance would become very sluggish.
I noticed with iStat menu that my HD is ALMOST always reading something at 1mb/s, and I have no idea what it is reading at. And the test would show read and write at only 10mb/s. Every app(like safari) would take 5 bounces to open. The constant reading at 1mb/s sometimes stops, and when I do the test the HD reads at around 60mb/s.
I have plenty of spaces left for OSX, around 200gb.
If I delete the bootcamp partition, everything goes back to normal..I've tried several times...
frustrated..could some one help me?
Thanks in advance.
