What type of performance should I be expecting out of my Sonnet Tempo ATA133 card? The main reason for getting this card in my digital audio G4 was for big drive support but I was also looking for a pretty good performance increase. Here are my xBench scores.

Uncached Read 119.90 24.68 MB/sec [256K blocks]
Are these normal or is there something else i should be doing? The drives also do not show up in Apple System Profile and I am not sure if this affects anything.
