raptor raid comparo

REVHEAD · Dec 28, 2008

Ok got sick of you guys making me jelous with these Veloci Raptor things, and well I dont see a future for SSD and me for sometime, so I got a pair of 80GB Veloci Raptors in raid 0, I am enjoying the seektimes, and I cant beleive how quite they are compared to my Seagates.

yea, my 74gb veloci in RAID 0 results are about the same as yours also.

Just got myself another 2 x 80gb Velociraptors this brings my Radi 0 up to 4x Vraptor Drives, I am impressed, not bad for a Onboard Controller and 2 of my drives have an older Firmware, hopefully when I update the two my graph should smooth out.

Two drives have U0 firmware and the other two have U1.

^Admirable dude, I think I will get me a pair of V-Raptors when my Tax chek comes in.

heres mine with the drives in my sig 4x320 raid0 :toast:

Those V-Raptors are killer. That burst speed is off the charts.

Idk what Intel ich controllers do but that is insane. I could barely hit 250 MB/s Burst with this AMD 750SB 3x WD 40GB in RAID 0. Although my average read is better than with ICH 9 controller.

I also have different 80GB Velociraptors with different Firmwares, 2 with U1 fw and 1 with U0. The U0 which is the older and the U1 which I believe is being manufactured with VR's from December 08 till now. I did notice a difference in the way they read and write. When compaing the two, the U0 firmware test is almost a straight line from start to finish, and the U1 is kinda curved all over the place, but the performance is about the same. I'm just wondering if it's a good thing to mix VR's with different firmware revisions.

REVHEAD do you have benchmarks of each drive individually?

REVHEAD · Mar 16, 2009

I am sorry for my late reply, some one hacked into my account and changed my account password and email so I wasnt able to use the forums for a few weeks.

Testing each drive seperatly I havnt been able to do because I went straight to raid 0 when I received my drives.

Eight 74GB Raptors in RAID0 on my Perc 5/i with 512MB Cache

The array is running 256KB stripe size.

SSDs, meh, I can wait.

Now if I had a better controller card I can imagine that number would be higher.

two words, BLOODY HELL. This makes me what RAID!!!!

How much was the Dell PERC?

thebeephaha · Mar 19, 2009

The Perc has dropped in price since I bought mine, saw one as a complete set with cables and battery for like $150 the other day.
