HD Tach Western Digital 320 GB WD3200AAJS RAID 0 on Intel Matrix Storage

is that wd3200aajs quiet or not?

Have you tested them separately? what are the values of average read speed on a single setup? I guess this is nice improvement, these HDDs are maybe little old...

I've seen an average read speed of 128 MB/s on a Samsung F3 1TB, maybe that would be a better deal :)

Interesting share though...

@malimilan sorry no, what I did here was compare IMS with Intel Rapid Storage

[mastermanio2]

So RAID 0 splits the load evenly across two harddrives, but does that mean it's effectively doubling the speed? I see that you have a burst rate of 332mb/s which seems incredibly fast to me. I've only seen single harddrives get as high as 180mb/s burst, so I'm guessing raid is really good.

Do you know if a 5400RPM drive is compatible with a 7200RPM drive in RAID 0 ?

[sephi2483]

@mastermanio2 It's just theoretical. I have not tried the 5400 and 7200 combo, but my guess is that both will be at 5400 RPM.

your setup is slow and gay, you getting 16.4ms access time. I'm not inprest.

@SergeKGB don't worry I'm not here to "inprest", I'm here to share.
