	Sorry to say it, but reformatting the drive is what you will
have to do.  I'm not sure why the program suggested 1:1 for the
format on a SE, but it shouldn't have.  (For those who haven't used
it, the Rodime installer "suggests" an interleave.)

	There is a small "table" on the display that indicates that
the Mac II interleave is 1:1, the SE interleave is 1:2, and the Plus
interleave is 1:3.

	In short; you're right, it is slower.  You are now getting
the worst performance possible from your drive.
