Results so far have been mixed. I could not format the array with the drives set to sata 300 and with the drives set to sata 150 the performance - particularly sequential reads - seems well below par. :confused:
I have tried all different controller settings, also storeport and scsiport drivers, all using the latest F/W.
Below is AS SSD - 980 at 4500, pcie 107, all raid 0 acard 9010 - 3x up to 11x, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! :( -

On a lighter note – how about a little “dynamic disk” fun! :)
So UD7/980 at stock, Areca 1231-4G, Areca 1880 1GB, each with 4xR0 Acard 9010s.
Softraided with W7 dynamic disk/stripping – NTFS, allocation (cluster) size – 64K –

How about using this dynamic array as a pcm05 target? – not bad considering no oc :) –

Also - forgot to mention - this is with 1880 using 1GB cache - 4GB should arrive next week. :)
This is the 1880 with 12xR0 Acards on the little GGBT H55N/655K (clarkdale) at 4500 - again bad sequential reads :shrug:

@SteveRo - wow, something is definitely wrong there. I wonder why the SATA 300 isn't working?
To everyone- I've been running my 1880 for a few weeks now and it seems like my average controller temp is around 54 C. Is this acceptable for normal use? Or should I try and put some additional air on it?
strange. are you using the beta firmware? seems to work best. i would fire off an email to areca asking them about your formatting issue. they respond very quickly (they are on different time zone though)
can you try setting the drives at 150 and testing the sequential with it? maybe we can have a baseline result from the 1231 to compare to.
Steve
I'm using the latest official fw/bios.
I did have bad numbers for sequential io way back when I had the 1GB stick installed :), can't recall if the 4GB stick resolved the issue or if it was some setting.
Here is my current system config settings, 2R0 X25M = 500MB/s ++ on reads. (4KB strip size)

@Spoiler,
Mine is hovering at ~45C, I've got a small 8cm low speed fan blowing directly at it. (In a Corsair 800D case, no special cooling at all, almost silent)
Without that little fan it would be close to your temp.
I´m looking for a comparison (only realworld) between ARC-1231/1261/1280ML and ARC-1880.
I to prefer OS-Boot (incl. initialisation), App- and Game-Loading. (or the 104-app-loadup from NapalmV5)
And which SATA-HDDs (Non-Raid-Edition) running stable with the 1880?
I think, the 1880 is very b-i-t-c-h-y with SATA-Drives.
I the past i heard the ARC-16xx-Series simulates the SATA-Protocoll only by software. And the 1880 is a SAS-HBA, too.
I tested 16hitachi 2tb drives, and it worked great in raid-5 and 6 wit Areca 1880ix-24. I do not know about other sata drives, but Hitachi is good enough for me :)
~1gb/s read and write raid-6
Which Hitachi? http://geizhals.at/deutschland/?cat=...tachi~958_2000
1gb/s without cache?
1880ix-24 +4gb cache
16x Hitachi Deskstar 7K2000 2TB
16x Hitachi 2TB Raid-0
Testing LSI based SAS expanders in supermicro cases with 48 1.5 TB seagates in raid60 is giving me:

Only 48 drives, I wish someone would come and show some stats using a large array.
:rofl:
Good afternoon all,
Ok so this is 1880 1GB on left and 1231 4GB on right.
Arrays on both are 4xR0 acards, 4k stripe, 64k cluster
980 at 4500, pcie 107, all drives are set to sata 150
I am hoping that adding 4GB to the 1880 will make a nice difference :) -

Seems like it has higher access times...
But I don't find these speeds to be low in any way, with 4 ACards at SATA150, you would max out at ~450-480 MB/s for all 4.
The ridicolously high reads/writes (>1GB/s) are just cached reads/writes, so they're not comparable.
As for the 12 ACard not doing >1GB/s, that's another thing.. try setting volume read ahead to aggressive? It could be the 1880 just doesn't like SATA well.
FYI - go see the other thread if you're interested - the 4GB mushkin (correction proline - bot from mushkin) memory is giving me problems.Quote:

And yes, read ahead is set to aggressive.
The 1880 seems to work fine with many SSDs based on several posts in this thread.
The drives I have available to test with are not the standard SSDs, acards and mtron mobi's.
Neither supports ncq, acards based on ddr2 dimms and mobi's are 1st gen SSDs based on SLC flash.
I plan to order the tekram 4GB memory this evening and give that a try.
so what is the cap limit of this controller??
Good morning Tilt!
Based on what I have seen from atto, it looks like cache-through-pcie max's out at over 3GB/s
I would have to go back and look at what Paul and Anvil posted to get an idea of max array-through-pcie
yes ok for the cache but what is the HDD cap limit???? how many ssd's can max out the controller???
Mr Nizzen is getting seq reads of almost 2GB/s, seq writes of about 1.4GB/s in a 2GB attoQuote:

Mr Anvil seems to be getting "close to max" with only 3x C300/64s - back a couple pages in this thread.Quote:
