[mythtv-users] SATA and DMA (SIIG 3112)

[leland sindt]

What does "hdparm -tT" show you?

hdparm -tT /dev/sda

/dev/sda:
 Timing cached reads:   2256 MB in  2.00 seconds = 1127.93 MB/sec
 Timing buffered disk reads:  112 MB in  3.08 seconds =  36.41 MB/sec


 Two SD and one HD stream is a *lot*  of data, you may be hitting the real limit of the drive system.

Yes, it is a lot of data... My orig plan was to use a SATA II controller 
(but didn't know at the it required pci-e at the time) 

Hmmm... Anybody got numbers/experience with Hardware/Software Raid 0? Did it result in increased bandwidth? 
(Less likely with software, I know)
