Thanks for posting these tests. Now I have actual numbers to beat our storage server provider about the head and shoulders with. Also, I found them interesting in and of themselves.
These numbers are close enough to bus-saturation rates that I'd strongly advise new people setting up systems to go this route over spending money on some fancy storage area network solution- unless you need more HD space than fits nicely in one of these raids. If reliability is a concern, buy 2 servers and implement Sloni for failover.
