#1201
Well I just got back in the wee hours of this morning from a business trip to Silicon Valley (brrr, went from 70s to 24F) and my new 128GB Samsung Pro SSD was delivered. I configured the 2 in RAID 0 with a 64 KB stripe size and restored the system from backup without a hitch. System is snappier, game levels load much faster, and also by reboot time did not change (16 seconds). I posted AS SSD and reboot time results in the hardware forum here:
Show us your SSD performance 2
> 1GB/s sequential read
of course the single thread 4k read was not affected, but this is virtually the same for a single 256 GB and 128 GB Samsung pro anyhow.
I am quite pleased I could upgrade from 128 GB to 256 GB with an increase in performance well beyond what a single SATA 6 Gb/s or a single Samsung 256 GB Pro could do (all around).
