Acard 9010 4x4GB R0 on ich10r benches

[SteveRo]

Good morning,

Most pleased with the acards on ich10r. Still struggling to get the acards to work under the Areca 1680ix-12(2GB).

Test system is i7 965 on Gigabyte extreme mobo, 3x1GB G. Skill 2000/C9, 2xGTX295 Quad SLI (koolance blocks), cpu and vc's water cooled via 2xBoreas all in series. Boot drive via mtron 16GB and non-ich10r controller (on the mobo), Acard array standalone on the ich10r (exception - the acard is the boot array on ich10r for PCMark05)

Clocks - cpu @ 4.48 (35x128) ht off, memory @ 1792 (99924), pcie @101

Memory used in the Acard's - G.SKILL 4GB (2 x 2GB) DDR2 800 Dual Channel Kit Model F2-6400CL5D-4GBNT - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820231207

Dam thats fast. I don't think NAND based SSDs will ever catch up to this thing.

Thanks, about ready to give up on the 1680ix, the controller just can't maintain the connection to the drives.

Yeh that's pretty dam fast, I think sata 2 latency is holding it back from being even more great compared to sata 3 or PCIe.
I think sata 3/PCIe may help future SSD's get close the the Acard sata 2 speed.
