    Steve, this seems to be awesome. Great IOPS. The best part about this setup is that you can add another ACARD or two for a near linear increase in performance (at least in sequential and random numbers). Your max with this setup should be around 1,320MB/s SUSTAINED reads/writes (ICH numbers times two) and 120k random sustained 4kb/read/write IOPS (max Areca numbers times two).

    This is actually looking really frigging cool. I am waiting for more benchmarks. If I like what I see and ioxtreme turns out to be full of fail then I'll grab a 1231 as well to raid it with my ICH. I'll also need 5 more X25-Es to max things out . Oh boy this will be $2.5k or so.

    What stripe sizes are you using on all the arrays?
