Connected via eSATA any ideas?

First things first. Connect it to an internal SATA port and run the test again. then connect it via USB or FireWire if possible, then run the test again. If you're still getting 10MB/sec writes after those tests, RMA the drive. If not, replace the eSATA cable. Also, make sure you have the latest drives for your drive controller.

Your SMART test looks to be good, by the way.

Sounds good I'll try some other cables first, it is a new eSATA cable then try it on another computer SATA port since it's a laptop. I have the latest WHQL certified Intel RST drivers so that shouldn't be the problem...

Based on the results it's something with eSATA...I have to go now but I'll try some other things later.
