The above link is with HDTach 2.52 but 2.61 reported the same.
Maybe it is an issue with the standard Promise IDE controllers rather than the RAID ones.

Ah yes, I am running the Promise drivers rather than those included in WinXP.
For the TX2 RAID controller these are 2.0.0.26

I've had dealings with them in the past (Issues with a TX4 RAID controller) and they have always been very helpful - they actually do know what they are talking about.
