Thanks for the feedback. I use the same database test that I've run a Sun dual Opteron with 4Gb RAM and (2) four disk arrays in RAID10. The sun box with one disc on an LSI MegaRAID 2-channel adapter outperforms this HP box. I though I was doing something wrong or there is something wrong with the box.
I agree, I think these say you are getting 240MB/s sequential reads and 1000 seeks per second.
That's pretty much the best you'd expect.

These number are pretty darn good for a four disk RAID 10, pretty close to perfect infact. Nice advert for the 642 - I guess we have a Hardware RAID controller than will read indpendently from mirrors.
