Hi,
Now a proud owner of the GA-X48T-DQ6 mobo I recently setup 2 raids on my system. Both on the ICH9R chipset.
2 samsung disks in raid 0 which work better than I ever expected and 3 seagate 500G disks in RAID 5, these not working so well.
I knew that RAID5 was going to be slower but I only get an average write speed of 20MB/s. Is this normal or could one of the disks be having problems and in this case be slowing them all down?
If there's a problem what would be the best method in finding this out? Most tests I did involved reading speeds, and that's working alright.
