I've been a fan of Matrix raid for some time. Real impressed with the speed.
Just recently I picked up a 3ware 9690SA-8i controller.
Would you believe that the Matrix raid is faster, MUCH faster than hardware RAID??
I'm not pleased with this card at all. I wanted to move to a Dual PCI-E board where I can put this baby in for some real speed, but its not working out as expected.
I've ran all three types of hard drive benchmarking.
HD tune
HD tach and
HD_speed
HD_speed is the only one that comes close to what the throughput should be with the 3ware..
Screen shots coming..
