Re: dell 1650 perc3/di raid 5 15k rpm performance



I installed the Red Hat kernel and performance was affected some but not
much.  I now get between 50-56Mb/s but still not close to the 70Mb/s of
before.
I'm not sure what you mean here "Also did you 
re-create the RAID device in the process of installing Debian?"  if you
could explain this to me a little more  that would be good.  I really
like Debian and would like to be able to use it on everything so I need
to learn how to optimize this box so it will run as good or better than
red hat.


Thanks

I suggest using anything other than hdparm for benchmarking.

Try using the Red Hat kernel on Debian and see how it goes.  Also did
you 
re-create the RAID device in the process of installing Debian?
