So I copied a lot of data (around 120 GB) from /dev/hdb (IDE/ATAPI) to
/dev/sda (IDE/ATAPI in an external USB case). This took a while. I noticed
that hdb seemed to transfer data only about a third to half the time, while
sda worked continuously (image here: http://24.94.123.65:81/ide-usb.jpg).
What's the deal? Is hdb really 2-3 times faster than sda?
The thing on eth0 and inet was some guy at 202.222.17.202 trying to log in
as root via ssh... can't be done. A little hosts.{allow,deny} magic and
he's gone.
