Hi! I got a linux software raid setup with this: 2 Promise Ultra 66 controllers 4 Maxtor DiamondMax 60 60 GB drives. Intel DK440LX motherboard 2xP2 333, 256 MB RAM I got the 4 drives set up in a RAID0 configuration with 32k chunk size. The filesystem on the drives is Ext2 with 4k block size. Every drive got its own UATA66 channel. With kernel 2.3.47 read performance was about 37.5 MB/s and write at about 33 MB/s. The bad thing whith this kernel was that the filesystem got corrupt.. :) Now I'm running 2.4.0-test1-ac8, now it reads with about 20 MB/s and writes at 30 MB/s, what has happend? The good in this is that e2fsck and badblocks doesnt find any errors anymore. The benchmark tests were done with Bonnie. // Torbjörn Olander [EMAIL PROTECTED]
