WD6400AAKS faster than Raptor?

WOW those results are close. Well within margin of error actually.

Edit: Just ran IOMeter as well and my 3x 74gb raptors @ 20gb on software raid beat both of your results by about 10% @ 1 Queue Depth. ~250 iops.

so uve been comparing ur 20GB against my 80GB/full.. your iops are higher because of the cache being used.. @ real world true hard raid always wins over soft raid despite benches showing higher bursts

look guys i didnt post these benches to beat u guys up or to break records.. or to tell u guys how to partition/how to set up your hard drives.. to each his own.. since no one else.. i posted these benches so u guys can see the difference between the two.. thats all

if id wanted to brag my arse of.. 4x 640GB iodrives benches @ 3200MB/s @ 0.1ms would do..

out!

since when are bursts = sustained iops? I wasnt starting the u vs me thing, I was just saying there might be something wrong with your raptors as they seem quite slow in comparison to some of the other benches I've seen floating around... Just the 8+ms in hd tach and hdtune show that there is something wrong, as I have never seen above 8 on a raptor anywhere.

Thanks for the results anyways, every little bit helps.
