You know, I've had a hell of a time with the MTRONs on SATA III ports. It shouldn't matter, and yet it does. A couple systems of mine won't boot with an MTrON on 6gbps Intel PCH.
Battleship MTRON would not last long in your hands Christopher :P
Hey now, I've only killed 2 of 5. I was able to save the third, and the fourth is powering the endurance rig. The fifth is somewhere around here, and if it knows what's good for it, it will stay out of my sight. They're all lucky to be alive, TBH. They're complex, but this is out of necessity. They're IDE drives with a SATA to IDE bridge attached with gaffer tape for good measure. Any one of a number of components could die, and any number of firmware maladies could claim them. They're the proto-SSD on the evolutionary tree of solid state storage. That they're as awesome as they are is a miracle. That they don't die more frequently is also a miracle.

I'll update the chart later tonight. (if there are more updates)
Sledgehammer? I can kill an MTRON with my bare hands. They're delicate lotus blossoms, and I'm losing my patience with anything not carved out of solid granite. In all seriousness, I don't think they play well with some modern hardware. And that's sorta to be expected, I mean, my X25-Es will keep windows from booting if they're on an Intel 6gbps port. My Chronos Deluxes will prevent this one AMD board I have from booting proper if it's on any of the SATA 3gbps ports (it's a 7xx southbridge, no SATA III). I still like the MTRONs, but damn if I'm not just plain scared to use them at all. I'm going to cowboy up and do the requisite power consumption testing though.
All Christopher has to do is look at an Mtron to make it throw off sparks and go up in smoke. That is before he hooks up the power cable. :shocked:
Stand clear if he gets access to a power supply!
He will try 220v if that is all he can find. "That SE is going to work this time". :ROTF:
Frying the drive is just as good as a SE in my opinion. And when drives go lame, the only compassionate thing to do is execute them.
MTRON
Rest In Pieces
:(
If you can put a horse down for a gimp hoof, then putting a MTRON down is basically is the only considerate course of action ;)

How many bytes does the 830 have on it?
4 700 701 261 985 sectors * 512 = 2 406 759 046 136 320 bytes. That's.... that is a proper, biblically epic number.
The Plextor is getting speedier, it was ~272MB/s earlier but with your recent updates adds a mb/s on it.. Should i take it as a bad sign?(it was steady 271-272 until 3K run out)
Btw i think its not 400TiB but 500

@Anvil: can you change ASU so that it reads the file for MD5 checking off the disk, rather then out of memory cache. My endurance computer has 8gig RAM so reading in the file for MD5 checking just seems to be checking my memory rather then the disk! Since I fixed my memory a while back, it probably won't find any faults there!
I've just been noticing that the total host reads haven't been increasing on my drives at all! Running HDD-scan though (while ASU is running) does seem to increase the host reads like it should
I did botch the last Update, the GiB is correct, but not the TiB.
I expect the drive's averages to increase slightly week by week (I consider this a sign that the drive is finally "broken in"). Both drives are gaining small amounts of speed week by week. I consider it a good thing.
The 830 hasn't popped any blocks in a very long time...

I've made changes to make sure that the MD5 testfile is not available in the disk-cache, will be available later today.
I'll try to trace back what caused the change.
