Geom raids bench

From FBSD_tips

I wanted to see how the various Geom raid configurations effected performance vs. a single drive configuration. I bought 4 identicle seagate barracuda drives to run as many tests as i could reasonably think of. This page is presently just a pointer to the raw data and configuration and benchmarking scripts.

Link to the directory holding the data :

http://bsdtips.utcorp.net/~gongo/benches/4_baracudas/benchmarks/

I will eventually put up an analysis of the results.

A great read to better understand RAID is at wikipedia
