NEED controller for over 1gb/s

[Computurd]

I am just curious if there is a raid controller out there that anyone is aware of that can get over 1.2gb/s thouroughput? that seems to be the max?

1 gigabit is easy, 1 gigabyte, yes that's doable too. http://www.ocztechnologyforum.com/forum/showpost.php?p=372722&postcount=22

edit: Just FYI, there's a few guys getting speeds like that, but there's also some debate that what they're seeing is mostly the onboard controller's cache speed, not true drive throughput.

Crystal disk mark is a borked HDD benchmark program when it comes to SSD>.....the only accurate ones are ATTO and Everest

The only way to get that type of speed is to get two raid controllers and software raid0 them.

Why do you need such outrageous performance? You'll have to look carefully at your motherboard diagram; ICH* chipsets often connect with a DMI bus that runs at 2 GB/s, which could be a limiting factor. A software raid controller hanging off an x8 slot on the Northbridge is your best bet for a single-card solution, I think.

Lsi8888elp card will hover around the 1gb/sec throughput

Here's another one, this time a linear read across my whole C drive taken just a moment ago on my areca 1680ix-12

yeah see i have a 1680ix- 8 port that is getting around 920 and i cant seem to get over that hump....what kind of settings are you using if you dont mind? any input would be appreciated!

If you get an areca SAS controller, just remember that some drives are not compatable.
