[Thinkpad] X40 HD/USB very slow?

Hi all, I just plugged a fast USB2 drive into my X40. I've used the same
drive on an X61s, and it was perfectly fast. But on the X40, it's very slow.

A bit of Googling (http://forum.thinkpads.com/viewtopic.php?t=27910) and I
found somebody with the same problem, and he decided that the bottleneck was
his X40 drive -- at about 3.5MB/s (not much faster than USB1) as opposed to
about 25MB/s for USB2.

Does anybody know if the X40 drive simply can't transfer data at a
reasonable speed?
