2x40GB Seagate 7200RPM in Software RAID1 for the system.
Highpoint Rocketraid 1640 Raid Controller + 4x200GB Software Raid5
Driver: hpt374-opensource-v2.12

I tried to make the Highpoint's RAID5 work using
hpt374-opensource-v2.12 and Highpoint Management Console but I always
get a Kernel Panic everytime I start to copy files to the RAID5
Volume, So I decided to use Linux Software Raid but still using
hpt374-opensource-v2.12 driver because the default drivers can only
detect the 2 SATA drives properly.



experienced the same on HW RAID on-chip emulation from Promise SATA controllers,
just stay away from those.




from my workstation to samba server (627MB iso file) = 8mins 20sec from my workstation to win2003 server (627MB iso file) = 1min 17sec


are you sure about your figures? the latter seems unrealistic especially if they have the same
physical specs. did Windows provided you the transfer rate? or are you the one who manually
timed it?
