Post your performance results
I thought it might be interesting to see what kind of performance everyone is getting with IO Meter so that we can compare what we're getting. So I thought we could all post our results in this thread...

I've just upgraded to Seagate 1TB drives, and took a performance snapshot before/after. I also took the opportunity to fit 1GB RAM to my X6 Rev A.
Here are my results using IOmeter, with the 256KB Sequential Read, and 256KB Sequential write pattern.
Seagate ST3500630AS x4 X-Raid - 512MB RAM
Sequential Read 28.4MB/s - 113.6 IOPS
Sequential Write 18.2MB/s - 72.9 IOPS
X-Raid internal sync speed ~ 52MB/s
Seagate ST31000340AS x4 X-Raid - 1GB RAM
Sequential Read 34.9MB/s - 139.6 IOPS
Sequential Write 21.3MB/s - 85.4 IOPS
X-Raid internal sync speed ~62MB/s
All results from a Shuttle SN45G with RTL8169 NIC (see sig) running Windows XP SP2.
