New Areca SATA raid adapter! Areca ARC-1264il-12/16

[ChrisRoad]

There was the Evo weekend, so I don't know how much time there is to run some benchmarks, between all these Shoryukens and Hadoukens

I have P/N: ARC-1264IL-12

First, I am new to the forum, but have been a lurker for quite a bit. Finally registered today. I have not had the opportunity to bench this card versus some of the other cards and storage systems I have at the office. However, I am concerned that it has been nearly 5 hours and I am still sitting at 0.0% initialization.

Once this RAID6 array is online, I will know how it compares with other models. (12) WD Red 3TB drives in RAID 6.

You could setup the ARRAY for testing and not initialise it
Do some benchies then setup again and initialise, so we don't have to wait 2 weeks

If this controller was IMBA, there would be ssd benchmarks already

Waiting for the next Areca sas controller with 8GB? cache

I take it that this card sucks!
