 I have been thinking about getting one.  The guy I bought my 3ware 9500S-12
card has one he's getting ready to benchmark.  I asked him to send me the
details and I will pass them along here if I get them.  He did mention it
supports SATA2 - whatever that provides.

 It's supposed to be twice as fast on the speed from what I saw on 3ware's site.

 Speaking of the 9500S-12, I just did some benchmarks using that machine and
MySQL reads/writes.  As compared to a single SATA drive, the server was quite a
bit faster when setup with the raid card and 4 10K Raptor drives.  I have the
benchmarks here if anyone is interested.  I also just ordered 4 more 10K drives
and I'm going to re-run everything in order to see how much of an improvement
adding more drives has.


I'd be interested to see the results of a fairly simple dd test. I
know its not the best test but would give me ball park figure
to go by as I have said results for a few other solutions.
