Strange DD Speed Problem
I am often creating clones of hard drives and I have come across something I don't understand. If I DD to a hard drive that has been previously used, the DD takes about 35 minutes. If I clone to a completely brand new drive, the DD takes over 100 minutes. If I immediately run the DD command again, on the same set of drives, the DD now only takes 35 minutes. Why are brand new drives causing the DD to take 70 extra minutes?
