Chain test results on dual 2100(32Kw) 7906 drive

28 2
28 45

this should mean about 43 seconds

Notes:
1) This test really doesn't test much other than the disk drive data
transfer rate, cpu excercising is negligable.
2) An emulator should vastly outperform a real disk drive, especially
assuming "short cuts" are taken and internally the software isn't going
through the same steps the real hardware is.
