I'm thinking of grabbing another 500GB 7200.12 32MB Seagate drive from a seller in the garage sales, but I still can't found the 32MB version in the Seagate website. Is it exist or not? TQ

QUOTE(everling @ May 21 2009, 09:06 AM) Nice. What if it was only two disks? I didn't save the benchmark but it was around 140MB maximum, 90MB minimum, 120 average. It was running on gigabyte's so called hardware raid though (the purple sata ports). After seeing the pathethic result I switched to the normal Intel Matrix Storage raid setup, albeit with 3 disks.
