Hi folks,
I have decided to build SSD HW Raid on the cheap, so for starters I picked up two 30Gb Patriot Warp v2 and soon will hook them up to Dell PERC 5/i card (~$120). Warp v2 is similar to OCZ's Core v2. For now though I ran quick tests comparing this SSD to my mechanical WD Caviar Black 1Tb 1001FALS.
All tests were performed on P35 with ICH9 on Biostar TP35D2-A7 v5. SSD was aligned with 64K offset. WD is OS drive with WinXP 32 SP3.
Drive itself
UPDATE: Added RAID-0 Patriot Warp v2 32Gb running on ICH10R on P45 chipset. Partition offset 128 sectors or 64K, 128K stripe, 4K allocation units NTFS.
EDIT: Removed HDTune sequential tests - they fail to test SSD's especially in RAID.
