On Tue, 15 May 2007, Kevin Kobb spaketh thusly: -}These reports on poor performance using mpt seem to be on SATA -}drives. Has anybody been seeing this using SAS drives? -} -}We are testing Dell PE840s with hot swap SAS drives, and seem to get decent -}performance, though I haven't run any benchmarks yet. Any opinions if the -}PERC5i/mfi is a better choice than the SAS5iR/mpt combination?
Would it be possible for you to install blogbench and give it a quick run while your system is idle? We will be ordering a new box in 1-2 months that we need high disk I/O capabilities. We've been looking at the PERC5i set up RAID 5 with 4-6 SAS drives. I'ld be interested in what you're seeing for throughput on the PERC5i. -- Randy ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) 765.983.1283 <*> Rain puts a hole in stone because of its constancy, not its force. - H.
