Hey does anyone have a WD caviar with 16Mb of cache? Here is my HD tach run in Vista x64 for two of my 500 Gb drives......one has the OS and the other has my page file.

I have my HDDs configured as AHCI.......and I just reinstalled Vista.....last time I ran it in VIsta I got a higher score on both drives with the Matrix manager software installed.
Anyone have it installed?

Here's my HD Tach on the same drive. Win XP, configured as IDE mode.

Got my new Team Xtreem PC6400 3-3-3-8 kit today. A lot faster then the Kingston PC8500 kit.

I wonder if HD Tach is losing performance due to the fact that I have to run it in compatibility mode in Vista.....I'm going to try to install XP on my external drive later today......hopefully I'll check that out.

Server 2008 RC1 x64. These burst speeds are incredulous. I'm running 2x160GB WDs (16MB cache) in Raid0.
