Do you mean that your score is lower than your previous scores, or lower than the score to which you are comparing it in the example?

JackHP appears to be using some kind of RAM drive, not standard hard drives.

Yes I agree. The comparison machine (JackHP, in red) has huge disk scores that can only be achieved via a RAM disk or very large on disk cache. Your disk score (in green) are in fact excellent. But no disk is as fast as DRAM. And we don't want to stop people testing RAM disks as it is a legitimate thing to do if you are considering using a solid state disk.
