I'm goign to assume that the IBM partition works at full speed. Given that condition, it isn't your HD that has a problem. It's simply the speed of the AMIGA bus between IBM and AMIGA. My 10MEG hardcard (not a PLUS but don't think that's important) works with the same problem. It's not a major problem, unless you have a program that uses alot of disk access from you AMIGA. I've heard that the problem can be fixed by formatting your AMIGA partition with the FastFileSystem, but don't really know and I haven't tried it. As a result I take no responsibility for what it does to your hard drive. It is something to look into though.
