In combination with a fast CF card, The CF-IDE should give you at least 7 MB/s. I can confirm what ddniUK already said. If I set my cyberscsi to asynchronous mode, it halves the speed. In synchronous mode I get ~7.5 MB/s.
This is with a scsi-ide adpter and CF-IDE adapter with a Sandisk Ultra II 4 GB CF card connected to my Cyberscsi, which is a Fast SCSI 2 controller.

Only thing I can think of is that your CF card is the culprit. What brand are you using and what speed does it have?
My Sandisk Ultra II has a read speed of 10MB/s and write speed of 9 MB/s.

I dunno if there are any good HD speed programs on the Amiga?


Scsispeed from the diskspeed archive on aminet is pretty good. Also there is a diskspeed program that comes with SFS.
