lol my virtual drive on XP mode for windows 7 64 bit

I had other stuff running but its good enough. If my mobo had a better controller you could probably add about 7% to this result. I'm also "only" using a SATA cable, not a "specific" SATA 2 cable. Is there even a difference beside the newer cables having a proper latching system?

[SimpleTECH]

Going to install my new 300GB Velociraptor and see how she benches. As a mental note here is my current WD Black 1TB (WD1001FALS):

[mk_dir]

System:

2 X Velocirraptor WD150HLFS
Win 7 RTM X64 (en Seagate 7200.11 80gb)
Intel Matrix Storage Manager 8.9
Gigabyte EP35-DS4 (ICH9R)

RAID0 80GB Slice Stripe 32KB:









Volume Write-Back Cache Enabled.

Here's a change of pace. A while back I saw one of our work Laptops running PAINFULLY slow. I decided to benchmark a few things to see what the issue was. This was the result after a quick run with HDTune.

Here's another abrupt change of pace, someone ordered x25m RAID0 with a 4GHz 975. Had to bench it!

[1Tanker]

Nice initialised. I fully bench all my builds also...hey, i don't want to sell them an unstable, or poorly performing machine.

PS: That's quite the beast.

[NapalmV5]

my asus eee 900

[F.E.A.R.]

Video?

And which OS? Is it a lited OS?

[NapalmV5]

the same nlited xp @ my youtube vidz

ill take vid of faster eee reboot when i get better hd cam

[firas]

[1Tanker]

Here's my PATA version of that disk, firas. Damm..that's pretty brutal.



Run in Mar. '06

[Alexxx650]

My 320x6 WD RE3

[Kondik]

However the CPU usage is interesting, I tried to rerun it 3 times but I usually got -1% -1.2% and 0.5%

It's a RAID controller thing. Since the RAID controller is managing the I/O for your HDD's I don't believe HDTune can accurate measure the CPU load induced.

4x Intel 80GB G1 drives on ICH10R in RAID10 (fairly empty)



the 4k random reads is a bug I think,

The reads were about the same in RAID0 with all the drives.

This is a Samsung F1 320GB (about 30% full) non-member RAID, non-OS (everything the same other than single drive)



And the last is a 150GB Velociraptor (about 30% full) non-member RAID, OS (everything the same other than single drive)

[F.E.A.R.]

@ Levish

Try "AS SSD Benchmark"

[WeHa]

here is mine :

2 x Western Digital Raptor 74GB WD740ADFD @ RAID 0

[Kurumi]

8x 750GB Samsung SpinPoint F1 in RAID 6 on an Adaptec 31205 PCI-E x8 controller running Windows Server 2008 R2.

[F.E.A.R.]

2x Acard 9010 @ Quad-Raid with ARC-1261ML (FW1.47) and Vista x64 - NO MFT!!!


4k - 100% Random - 100% Write - 64 outstanding IOs




Workstation - 64 outstanding IOs

[Origin_Unknown]

Raptor 74GBx2 Raid 0 ICHR9




does that seem ok? bit clicky those raptors!

looks fine, just remember there ooooollddd drives now (tho' still very good performance)
