Starting with the basics, check to see if DMA has been turned on for all drives, some times they may revert to the much slower PIO mode.

Here's how: http://www.burstcopy.com/dma/xp/

Make sure shrink is not set to run in low priority mode
Trun off any other apps running while using shrink/decrypter

You might also want to check and make sure your drive's firmware is upto date (these updates can also enhance performance).

Check here: http://forum.rpc1.org/dl_search.php

just enter the model# in the search field and go...
Note: you can also use decrypter to check for you and update
