I have done some more disk speed testing on my system, and now am requesting
a reality check. Having downloaded SiSoft Sandra 2003.3.9.44, I then turned
off my Norton AntiVirus and ran some tests. Here are the results:
Seagate ST31742A (Medalist 17G, 7200rpm ATA 66): 11MB/sec
Seagate ST34371W (Barracuda 4G, 7200rpm wide SCSI): 5.5MB/sec
dual Western Digital WD800JB (80G each, 7200rpm, 8MB buffer, ATA100)
connected in RAID 0 through my SATA: 22MB/sec
Sandra includes some performance specs for some sample drives. The figures
that are given in the samples seem too fast when compared to my results.
Have any list users run this version of Sandra, and what results have you
gotten? All my test show is that my SATA RAID is twice as fast as my older
ATA drive, which is good. The bad part is that Sandra is implying that my
RAID is half the speed of where it should be!
Thanks for any input.
Peter
