Download this utility.

Run this and post your results. Please use default size of 1000MB with 6 iterations for default comparisons.

With all the different configurations out there, it would be worthy to see a list of the scores. This utility produces faithful results that are self explanatory.

Cheers!

Is that the same benchmark from vanshardware, where it shows an Athlon 2000+ beating a Pentium 4 2.53Ghz by like 100%? And the same benchmark where it shows a celeron 2Ghz beating the same Pentium 4 2.53 Ghz system? It was from like a year or so back.

Cool! A new HD benchmark! Thanks, Shuttleteam.

Don't know how accurate this program is, but at least it's a new "standard yardstick" if you will. :) Here's mine (I did both sets of drives in my main rig :D)


Single Fujitsu MAS 18GB 15K RPM SCSI on LSIU160 SCSI controller

******** SCORES ********

File copy score, 2642

Holy crap...the IDE array beats the single SCSI! I've GOT TO get a SCSI Raid card...Shuttleteam...help me out...recommend something, please!! And no....I'm NOT BUYING the dual-XEON board. :p ;)

OK, something has to be wrong with my setup, cause every benchmark I run does strange things, and shows my diska as slow, even though they "feel" fast
First my 80 gig maxtor IDE:
******** SCORES ********
File creation score, 1218
File copy score, 2614
COSBI score, 1916
************************

And my 120 gig Maxtor SATA:

******** SCORES ********
File creation score, 826
File copy score, 2076
COSBI score, 1451
************************

Now comes the killer: 4 18 gig 10k rpm SCSI in raid 0 on an Adaptec 2100s controller with 128 meg cache:
******** SCORES ********
File creation score, 323
File copy score, 1117
COSBI score, 720
************************

WTF ??? Does mixing two different types of drives kill the array that bad ???? I have two Seagate ST118202LW , and two Seagate ST318404LW.

Any ideas ???? BTW, ATTO, if I disable direct access, has write speeds at 20k, and read times at 800k (the 128 meg cache I'm sure)

Adaptec cards are horrible performers. This test shows this well. It is a test for storage systems. Processors and memory have little affect on results when you use the default settings of 1000MB/6i.

You do want identical drives when running raid-0.
Click to expand...

Most definitely. As a matter of fact, you also want firmware revisions to match as well. I make sure drives are purchased at the same time so revisions/pcb/dcm/etc are identical.

Cheers!

Yes I should mention that defaults use the same drive for target and source.

Obviously, if you're using sep disks (for example using a different physical drive for Adobe Photoshop scratch disk) then it may be more "real world" to change these settings accordingly.

Cheers!
