2x WD 36.7 Raptor raid0, crappy Silicon image3112 controller with 16k strips
actually its not the DFI - u have it connected to the Silicon Image SATA ports - what mobo u have? I bet u have a nV chipset, in which case put it on the nV SATA ports, u'll get much better performance that way..Quote:

Definetely not bad for a notebook hard drive. It's fast because of its size (platter density) despite being only 5400 RPM. Access time could definetely use some help though.
Seagate 7200.11 500GB http://www.seagate.com/ww/v/index.js...D&locale=en-US
the pc is folding, ignore the cpu 100% rading.

Wow now that is impressive. Quite a bit more performance they squeezed out of those drives since the 10 series. My 320GB 7200.10 only did 60-65MB/s average.
4 36gb 16mb cache raptors raid 0 w/either a 16 or 32kb stripe (can't remember what I decided on)
It's a camera shot because thats the new comp I builts and it isnt connected to the internet yet.

I don't have images to upload but I ran my new Samsung 1TB F1 drive and it read 92.4MB/s in the short/fast HDTach test and 94MB/s in the longer test. That's PHENOMINAL! This is the new drive to beat. Go to Tom's Hardware and check out the hard drive charts. This thing destoys the competition.
(I'll work on the images to prove it)
2x 320GB Samsung 16MB cache RAID0 nforce 590 chipset
3x Samsung 320GB 16MB cache RAID0 ICH9R - below sig
This is from my webserver, 2x320gb Western Digitals in Raid 1 on a Promise Fastrack TX2300 raid controller.

This is from my 2x150gb Raptor Raid 0 array on the Intel ICH7R.
Think something is going on.

very average while running iTunes and Firefox and no defrag. Good enough for me since I can't figure out how to set up a raid array for my life. Some one please help me.
Where are u having problems?
