Areca 1880

[Tutto]

When I can get the 4Gb mushkin to work - I get nice numbers, the seqential reads are much improved.

For me the 1880 really seems to need the large cache to shine.

And yes, read ahead is set to aggressive.

The 1880 seems to work fine with many SSDs based on several posts in this thread.
The drives I have available to test with are not the standard SSDs, acards and mtron mobi's.
Neither supports ncq, acards based on ddr2 dimms and mobi's are 1st gen SSDs based on SLC flash.
I plan to order the tekram 4GB memory this evening and give that a try.

I received a stick of the mushkin yesterday and it doesn't work for me. The controller boots up and detects 4GB but in the log it shows a memory error and I can't boot into windows. I went ahead and ordered a 4GB module directly from Tekram and got an RMA to send the mushkin back.

I'm having a problem getting archttp to recognize my 1880 in Win 7 X64. Any suggestions what I can do to get that working?
