I tried to execute the following commands (hdparm) to tune the harddrive, but they don't seem to be working on my PC. Please take a look them and guide me further.
Noo! You have SCSI disks!! As you noted in a previous message, /boot is on /dev/sda, which means SCSI. Go into your SCSI Bios setup (during a reboot) and see if you can determine the bus speed and max data rate for the device. Examples will be: 20, 40, 80, 160, 320 Mbits / s. Also see if you can identify the hard drive. If the SCSI BIOS doesn't help you, you can use dmesg or cat /proc/scsi/scsi

Code:
[root]# fsck
fsck 1.39 (29-May-2006)
e2fsck 1.39 (29-May-2006)
/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 is mounted.  

WARNING!!!  Running e2fsck on a mounted filesystem may cause
SEVERE filesystem damage.

Do you really want to continue (y/n)? yes

NOOOOO NEVER DO THAT (unless you know what you're really doing). Did you not see the "SEVERE damage" part of the message?

Consider yourself lucky.
