Hitachi 5k750 issues.

[mario.jr]

Hi!
Ive just upgraded my 500GB scorpio blue to a new 5k750 and Im having lots of issues regarding perfomance.
The 5k750 is really slow, Im getting 43MB/s writing and 93MB/s reading using AJA as benchmark, and using Xbench only 44 of overal score.
Does anyone know if there is some issues in MBP 6,2 and new hitachi drives, or should I RMA it?

Thanks!

I would try some of hitachi's drive tools, especially drive fitness test at the very least

Thanks for the advice.
When I get home gonna try that.
Btw, I forgot to mention, Smart utility is reporting that load cycle count is growing up at about 4 cycles/min (+/- 2000 when I left home) and about
1 milion Power-off Retract Count .
I dont think that is right. Right?
