hours on this:
model name      : Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU          6300  @ 1.86GHz
[root at potoroo ~]# hdparm -i /dev/sda

/dev/sda:

  Model=ST3320620AS                             , FwRev=3.AAK   , 
SerialNo=            5QF5Q5DV


It's an HP dc7700, 2 Gbytes of RAM.

However, it's possible I was a bit behind and didn't pick up the newer 
version until just before my 1.0 Gbyte update. I've given up watching, 
but I could time it and post the results if I think it's still slow.
