Hey guys, How do you know if your machine can handle adding some more drives to it? How can you check that there is enough BUS IO to handle extra sata cards and also that the machine is powerful enough to support say an 8 drive raid 5...

Maybe hdparm could abused for that?
Reporting the disk cache transfer rates for one or two disks at the same time?
