What is the normal speed for server drives?
I measured the speed on the working server - it turned out to be about 120MB for reading, it was not possible to check for writing - the utility referred to the fact that it could not write to the partition under the virtual machine.
How bad is that by today's standards? What is the approximate speed of typical drives on modern mid-range servers?
I just had 120MB for reading in 2003 on my home computer. it turns out that the server is full of rubbish?

The linear speed for spindle drives has not changed for 15 years and is 100-120 megabytes per second. This is a mechanical device, there is nowhere to shove it.
For SSDs, the speed is usually limited by the bandwidth of the interface. For SATA, this is 6 gigabits and about 550 megabytes per second.
The speeds of NVME drives, which are included directly in PCI-Express, are significantly higher and usually range from 10 gigabits per second, that is, 1200-1500 megabytes per second and higher.
Normal speed - one that satisfies the needs of tasks, not fashion. Especially on servers where 100,500 reasons affect the speed.
