Has someone testet the 40-app-loadup?
Someone build me a rig better than napalm's, send it my way, and ill test it for you :)

:D
I need a tool to log the bootuptime, MB/s., IOps etc.

look guys it dont matter if you got ssd/acard/hdd/raid/whatnot or if you got the faster results or not.. post your results.. the more of you post your results the better the indication youll get what all this hardware can do @ real apps
Pure awesomeness in this thread.
Thanx for the info & results!
This was only the smaller Areca-1210 ;)Quote:

Heh, i get 84 seconds in the reboot .vbs test.
My OS isn't very well optimized though & is an old install.
I'd love to do the applications test, but i don't have time right now to install so much stuff. :eek:
I just ran the 40-app test w/ a single X25-M. Although I did not use Rivatuner as its too much of a pain to get it to install on a 64-bit OS. So I used Thunderbird instead. Took ~ 12 seconds.
Cool!
Do the same on 2xRaid0 setup if you get the chance, please.
:)
@ Napalm
This is my next project (in my dreams *lol*)
not from me you won't :p:Quote:

Great!
Apps that you use are even better.
And you are right about timing them, it should give even clear picture of what setup is faster!
Thanks! :)
Fresh OS, Fresh X25-Es (just secure erased), 4.5ghz = ~9.5 secondsQuote:

Yes, 2.Quote:

I think 12sec to 9.5 sec was mainly due to the secure erase. The drives get A LOT slower after being thrashed around. Average read access time goes from 0.09ms to 0.16ms and the maximum access times go wayyyy up. If I got two more then they would stay in the fresh state for months. I would have gotten two more already but I spent a few thousand this month on random :banana::banana::banana::banana: already and I gotta pay for uni as well right about now. Maybe in a month or two when my pay checks catch up.
This is still using ancient firmware. I should flash them and try it again.
Which FW? 1.46?
Wow, CPU clock speed sure makes a lot of difference!:eek:
Thing is, it probably isn't very noticeable in everyday usage, right?
I personally don't like the extra power consumption and heat. I much prefer a moderate overclock. The i7 860's are looking like a pretty good cpu to overclock, if they have plenty of headroom.
Quite noticeable... Games load that much faster for me as well.Quote:

The waiting game newer ends! :D
Hey Napalm, any chance you could run the same test with the original 512mb memory on your controller if you still got it. Curious how much of a difference, if any cache, memory gives for read access like boot times and app. load.
I'm just about to start buying SSD's and this thread has been very helpfull, really great reading and Very informative. A massive thankyou to all for your time and effort.
Is it possible to incorporate a software timer into the 40app test? I find it extremely difficult to know exactly when to stop the stopwatch.
