I was planning on 3d benching a 580 under dice this weekend but I killed that cardso I have been drowning my tears in iometer instead.
All tests below where with Areca 1880/4GB 16x Acard 9010 R0 with read ahead disabled, 2600k @ 45x multi
Read ahead disabled seems best for acards.
Based on AS SSD, any read ahead seems to just get in the way.
4k strip, 64K cluster (same as for the PCH).
Iometer test file size - complete drive filled, 28.4GB (0 GB free).
Edit - Turns out that these iometer runs where all at 2GB used, even though the file created was 28.4Gb - as such these runs are using the Areca 4GB DDR2 cache to unfair advantage

The same test - Random Read 4-128KB exp2 QD1-128_2011_aligned - would not run beyond test 5 all the others ran to completion.
Data seemed more erratic but some of the numbers looked huge.
AS SSD and wei winsat disk for this config -
