Hi, |
| 2 |
Yesterday I got a new, but rather low-end, PCIe-2 SATA-3 6Gb/S |
| 3 |
adapter card and a reportedly high performance 128GB SSD drive. (Links |
| 4 |
below) Other than my swap getting messed up because it didn't use |
| 5 |
labels (who knew about swaplabel but didn't tell me? ;-) ) the |
| 6 |
adapter and drive are in the machine and working fine. Unfortunately |
| 7 |
the performance isn't what I might have hoped for. Both hdparm & |
| 8 |
bonnie++ are reporting numbers in the 200MB/S range rather then the |
| 9 |
400-500MB/S range that I might have hoped for. The machine is PCIx-2 |
| 10 |
based according to its specs. |
| 11 |
|

I'm currently just using a single large partition & ext3. I didn't |
| 13 |
do anything special in fdisk so the partition might not be aligned as |
| 14 |
best it could be. I don't know. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
I'm wondering what sort of experience folks have had trying to get |
| 17 |
performance numbers anywhere close to these specs? |

Thanks, |
