Storage evaluation



There's nothing wrong with SiS' PATA controller. The average PATA read speed, from a 160GB Western Digital hard drive, is just where it should be.



SATA performance is also right on the money.



USB2.0 performance is the best of the lot. SiS' 965 southbridge, in storage speed terms, is plenty fast enough. Low CPU utilisation on all three counts, too.
