Im getting 25%-35% when performing a file copy from IDE to SATA I. Seems a little high to me... What should the average be? Cant find this info anywhere on the net. I have a Athlon 64 3700+
 
Ah, I think it might be cool n quiet. Could possible explain some the wild fluctuations I am seeing as well. Will test this tomorrow. Good to know other people getting this throughput. Unless me and you allllec are both suffering the same fault, if it is a fault. I was surprised how little information there was on google about average cpu usage on file copying. You should have seen all the variations I googled for as well.
 
Nice one Allllec. Same as my machine. I wonder if this is one area where a dual core would be of a benefit. Could use one core for the file transfer and the other core for the OS. I wonder what % cpu load would be with dual core?

Could anyone else give an estimate on what their CPU load is on large file transfers from IDE to SATA?
