I have a 3ware SATA 8500-4 controller with 4x WD 36GB Raptor SATA drives. Wow. Just "wow". At least a factor of 2 better than what I've seen before. I think a boatload of that is the 5ms seek time, gotta love that.
I'm burning them in, if they work then we'll use those for bkbits.net. If you guys need me to run any tests/kernels against this mix let me know.
These are nice drives. I got 4 drives and the controller from newegg for about $950 shipped including tax. -- --- Larry McVoy lm at bitmover.com http://www.bitmover.com/lm - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
