Hmm. Did you do the Sandra test over the network? If not, maybe you
have a 100Mb/sec link somewhere in there? Youer observed 10.29MB/s
would perfectly fit such a link-speed, as it is very close to 100Mb/s
raw speed (8 * 10.29 = 82.3Mb/s, add a bit for ethernet overhead...).
Might be a bad cable, router port or network card. I have had this
type of problem several times with Gigabit Ethernet.
