Show us your hard drive performance

[ciphernemo]

Hahah yeah, obviously.
Was looking through acces times.... 10 ms and 0.2 ms.. thats 5 times less(yeah, 50)

No worries, easy mistake to make with the decimal place.

Anyway which SSD pulls off 0.1 ms? new intel xm-25?

Just about any good SSD can do 0.1ms. Browse through older pages of this thread to see plenty of examples. But to be honest, not much difference between 0.1 and 0.2ms.

My OCZ Vertex 30GB drives do this. They were $130 each minus a $20 MIR. So with four of them in a RAID 0 of 120GB, that cost me $440. They blow away even Velociraptors for performance when you put them in a RAID 0/5/10 array.

4x WD Scorpio Black 250GB 7200 RPM 2.5" in RAID 10

Not what I'd hoped for but it'll do for now.

im comfortable with these results. not that i didnt expect anything better..

 

[DLG]

this is with write back cache enabled. not much of a difference but maybe more averagely consistant.

Here's my Drive, and here's my results...

1. Benchmark
2. File Benchmark
3. Random Access

For the lack of anything better to do, I came up with this benchmark to see how much several common programs help improve drive speed, if at all.

To start, I did a basic scan before everything to give a base level.

Then I ran CCleaner.

And finally MyDefrag, both the drive optimization and defrag routines.

Apparently what helped my drive best was running CCleaner.

I belive it is time to upgrade the HD has just failed on me (not a big loss) and now it is a paperweight. So now since that happend it is time to get SATA 2.

 

[grimreaper]

it's ok ....def faster than my Seagate's 500GB which I retired

 

[Dogz]

Guess what arrrived in the mail today!! My new hard drive!! here are the results!!

 

[ussj4brolli]

From IDE to single member Raid. W/ NCQ enabled makes a huge differance in the 4k64 thread.

2x cheap 320Gb Samsung disks in RAID0 using onboard Intel ICH9.

 

[grimreaper]

i wish i had setup my WD 1TB HD's RAID 0 damn (shaking head) my computer would be almost twice as fast.

I have just backed up all my info, and will re-install win 7 x64 (for the last time) to set up RAID 0 (2XWD1TB third 1TB is strickly backup) ohh i can't wait ...have alot of programs to install again hahaha
See you guys again soon

Here is my WD Scorpio Black 320GB

 

[The Soft Attack]

Oh, crap. This isn't good.

So, is there any way that I could get these numbers to be a little better? I wish mine reached 100+ mb/s too lol

I have mine in a raid 0 array which increases the read and write speeds but in the event of a power failure or smething it increases the ris of data loss.

 

[topcat1]

Finally got my new RAID array setup.

4 x 640GB WD Caviar Black in RAID 5 on a LSI Logic 8708 ELP controller.

 

[hdjunkie]

I finally put my two wd black 1tb drives in raid 0 for my dvr after adding a couple 1.5 drives. Performance is what I expected, and now I won't have any trouble recording 6 streams at once...

 

[Lomaaaz]

is this bad guys..!!!!!!!

 

[kicker40]

This is mine.

2xOCZ Vertex Series SSD 60 GB in Raid 0
