Looks quite slow. I get 18 MB/s from a 20GB 2.5" HDD in an 1394a
enclosure, on an 1394a adapter or same on an 1394b adapter. The HDD was
actually taken out of a TiBook some time ago.

But I have no reference values of PowerBooks in target disk mode. This
mode is probably not optimized for performance.
