Just added a 4th drive and all my numbers went up except Seq. Read went down :eek: - this is using the onboard ICH10 on an ASROCK X58 Extreme.

Yeah, thats pretty normal.
Odd number of drives does (for the most) perform better sequentially than even numbers, using the ICH/PCH that is.
Looks like 3 is the magic number for my setup - will off this 4th drive and go with 3 for now.
Thanks for the heads up Anvil.
