FW: Horribly bad RAID performance with PERC2 (AMI Megaraid)

1999-07-19 Thread Ken Cornetet
I have a DPT SMartRaid IV (32MB cache) with 3 wide channels controlling 4 Seagate 18GB drives in a RAID 5 configuration. Under Linux (Redhat 6.0) I only see about 8MB/sec reads and 2.5MB/sec writes. Under NT I see about 8MB for reads and writes. Talk about lousy performance! This is a dual PII
