well that run is very impressive ourassi, but i do cry foul. if you are on ICH10R, how in the world are you getting 1234.15 MB/s on your media center run? that defies explanation, unless you are using a ram drive, etc. can you explain how it is possible that you are getting the sequential speeds at such small file sizes? i mean 1200 with two drives that are spec'd at what? 250/mb sec? and that is not at small files, either. you are getting the speed of FIVE x-25's with two devices?
