By the way - as far as I have been able to ascertain all other things are equal. Both boxes are using the same HP Smart Array 6402/128 controller and all other settings are equivalent - such as the cache/Accelerator Ratio settings. Also, if it matters - the block buffer cache is disabled in the small test program (which I didn't write).
