It doesn't matter whether 80% or only 5% when your array idled ;)

9 hours is still boring :D
stripe size for 6x intel x25-m???
1 mb!!
Thanks for noticing steve...Quote:
Both nizzen and computurd have turned in some very high pcmark vantage numbers using sas controllers (areca 1680 and LSI 92XX).
With all the debate raging about the power of this controller raging on, i forgot to link that LOL number 13 in the world is nothing to sneeze at.
funny thing is i ran that benchmark before there were even windows 7 drivers available for this card, and i ran it in win7, also i ran that on the original firmware that came with the card. i am no hardcore benchmarker, my gpu wasnt even overclocked on that run.
seriously i just ran it. i was shocked.:shocked:
i wonder what i can do now that
A>there are win7 drivers
B>the small file performance has increased by a very very significant margin with latest two firmware revisions.
when i have some time we will find out....
@ FEAR
the intel controller you mentioned is merely a rebranded LSI 9260....it has the same BIOS, WEB GUI and everything as the LSI. the only difference is the label. i have already confirmed this with other owners of the cards on ocz forums. you can even use the firmware interchangeably between the same two controllers. testing is underway to see if the win7 drivers are any different in performance...doubt it though, these things are identical.
DAMN triple post!!!
@NIZZEN
the highpoint has pci-e 2.0 x8 in the future...
LSSI 9260-8i has it NOW, and why in the world would you even go with 3gb/s raid card right now??
Computurd im still waiting something from u :P:P come on man bench ur array in 4x :P:P:P i want to see how the controller works in diff. SSD method :D
I think one thing that might have really helped nizzen's vantage score was ocing the pcie - on my gigabyte extreme I could only get 101 (100 stock).Quote:

@tiltervros..alright alright...i am using my array for 24/7 usage right now. i have a new, top secret device coming Tuesday, which i will have to put my array onto. i will run some benchs of 4x in the process. those numbers are extremely high for 4 ssd though....lordy that averages out to 269 per drive, i dont think my vertex's are up to that challenge:shocked: we shall see.;)
i made a script like napalm uses... lol its fun its really scary..!!! do u want to capture a video???
my numbers are extremely high for ur array??? lol!!!!!!! hmmmm ive seen the samsung ssd video... frame by frame.... computurd have u seen the last 10 seconds frame by frame??? plz do it and tell me what u r thinking of.Quote:

no i mean they are high for four drives LOL, did you use a nested array? LOL nice!! i have seen the last four seconds of samsung video before, and what they did is soft raid two controllers. you can also do it with ich10r and a controller. i dunno been awhile since i looked at it. those nested arrays are fun stuff though, and ultra fast:hump:
nested array=? sorry about that
like a 'software' raid between two controllers. a raid array made up of two separate controllers.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nested_RAID_levels
nope my array is on the LSI. 4xintel M series
wow. nice job! my 30 GB vertex top out at 230 each, so you probably have me on that one. that is impressive for four drives!!
:rolleyes: here you go
nice, what controller properties are you using? direct i/o? also, have you found NCQ to work better in your usage? i get higher speeds by disabling NCQ...
http://i517.photobucket.com/albums/u332/paullie1/a.png
NCQ is always disable... see my post above ;)
some say that its a crup... some say that it is just for boys...
ALL I KNOW is LSI 9260i8..........
i wonder where is ARECA :D:D:D hahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahah haahhahaahhahahaha
http://www.diskusjon.no/index.php?se...#entry14306468
i could not agree with you more tiltervros LOL man when the areca 18XX sas/sata cards come out in march we will be having fits testing these like madmen!!
dx11 is to nvidia as
6gb/s is to areca???
:rofl::rofl:
Can anyone try this card on a Gigabyte GA-X58A-UD7 please?
Cause I heart that it doesnt work on some MSI boards and LSIs reply to that is: "buy a server board"... :(
The 9260-8i works great on the UD5 so it should work on the UD7.
All this talk got me tempted so ordered a LSI 9260-8i as well expect it to be better than my current Highpoint 3520LF raid controller :D
Does anyone have benches without cache?
