1st ever Harddisk benchmark thread

[Ultima]

hey guys,

sorry for the long wait, been busy quite a bit with other stuff

Anywho, stats are updated, looks very nice, me is still on top. LOL
But we have a nice runner up, with a lot older drives even, so way to go RetroEvolute.

And ofcourse J.Woody, by improving his drive benchmark by like 300% or something, but it was pretty low to begin with.

I just couldn't bare the fact that someone was so close. LOL

So I did some reconfiguring and ran a new benchmark and improved a bit

Does that mean my drives could be performing a lot better, or??

Ahh well, it isn't a race, or at least not primarily

OK, I'll keep the thread going,


My rig,
Asus P6T v2 Deluxe, Raid5, 4 WD Black 640 HD's, i7 920, 12 gig ram, Evga 275

Max "MBPS 308"
Avg "MBPS 235"

The burst rate looks wrong at 1229 but I think that is because I have HD data cache enabled. Someone else may want to chime in on that.

Just edited..... will post ss soon. Raid 0 now raid 5 and went from 3 drives to 4. Bench was a little lower but very close
