Something is not right. With a 16 HD RAID 10 based on 10K rpm HDs, you should be seeing higher absolute performance numbers. Find out what HW the Areca guys and Tweakers guys used to test the 1280s. At LW2006, Areca was demonstrating all-in-cache reads and writes of ~1600MBps and ~1300MBps respectively along with RAID 0 Sustained Rates of ~900MBps read, and ~850MBps write. Luke, I know you've managed to get higher IO rates than this with this class of HW. Is there a OS or SW config issue Brian should closely investigate? Ron Peacetree
