I've got some sort of 40 GB 4200RPM (don't know how much cache) disk in my 
laptop and I'm getting:

/dev/hda:
 Timing buffer-cache reads:   420 MB in  2.01 seconds = 209.20 MB/sec
 Timing buffered disk reads:   34 MB in  3.10 seconds =  10.97 MB/sec

changes to hdparm make no difference in the above stats.
