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...

IOmeter read: 2.67 write: 3.1967
1. RAIDiator version: Firmware: RAIDiator 4.1.4 [1.00a042]
2. Memory: 1024 MB [2.5-3-3-7]
3. Performance tab settings: Enabled fast CIFS writes, everything else off.
4. Network switch model (and firmware version) D-link DIR-655 version 1.21
5. NIC on your PC:D-link DWA-552
6. Number of disks and disk models: 4 Seagate ST31000340AS 1TB total 4TB
7. The read/write MB/sec numbers from IOMeter or drag & drop test.
8. Psu : yes
9. Core 2 quad w/ 3GB ram
JB on was worse. I played around with all settings. I replaced the cable running from the NV+ and received the best write: 4.429, but read was 1.2547. It didn’t stay that good though. It went back to about 2 on average for both read and write until that one above. Even those were better than I started with: 0.247351 read and write 2.720. At this point I would almost be happy with the teens that everyone else is unhappy with. I average about 3.0 for write with drag and drop after the 4.4. Although I am no beginner with computers, networking is still fairly new to me. I have errors but, I don’t know what I can do to fix those errors:
Network Errors [Ethernet 1]
Auto-negotiation 3
Bad packets 4
Disconnect 3
False carrier 5802
Idle errors 77797
Link failures 0
Receive errors 0
Symbol errors 430
VLAN tags 0
TCP Retransmits 829
Unrecovered TCP Retransmits 304.
I would appreciate any help.
