I have 5 (scsi-160, 15000rpm) drives in a raid 5 array connected to a perc5 di raid controller build onto the motherboard. the DRBD SynchAll is a backwards IO stream of the physical partition (it begins at the end of the partittion, and streams the block from end to beginning to the remote client), i havent got this operation to work faster that 16MB/s peak. -- +----------------------------------+---------------------------------+ | Lee Leahu | voice -> 708-444-2690 | | Internet Technology Specialist | fax -> 708-444-2697 | | RICIS, Inc. | email -> lee@ricis.com | +----------------------------------+---------------------------------+ | PGP Public Key: http://www.dyweni.com/index2.php?page=gpg | +--------------------------------------------------------------------+ | I cannot conceive that anybody will require multiplications at the | | rate of 40,000 or even 4,000 per hour ... | | -- F.
