Adaptec vs Areca vs HighPoint

[NapalmV5]

If a QX6700 @ 3.6 is garbage here, I might as well head over to Toms where I belong with my low clocking, high-heat Q6600

I wasn't trying to imply that *your* test wasn't objective - I was trying to say that I thought it was an objective test that you could perform, seeing as I lack the ability to test against your results.

I would appreciate posting those. Would it be possible to test with cache enabled and disabled too, by any chance? Just to see what level they effect the results to?

Edit: I'll tell you what. I'll check how much room I have left on my external backup drive (a mere 80GB thing) and see if it would be possible to put drive images of both my raptors on it. The Linux partition's small, but I'm not sure how compressible VM files are on my Windows one so we'll have to see. *If* I have the space I'll bring out an old TX2300 (the only software-driven add-on card I have left) and test them out again in a secondary PC. I believe it's a PCI card though, so we'll probably see some bottlenecking at ~120MB/s... but that's about the best I can do. Actually, I may be able to do some onboard testing with my P5K Deluxe too, just as a baseline reference.
