  • Drive Benchmark Comparison

    I just put together a software RAID5 volume on my new home server. I've run Bonnie++ to get some numbers of performance and here's what I got.

    Code:
    Version  1.03       ------Sequential Output------ --Sequential Input- --Random-
                        -Per Chr- --Block-- -Rewrite- -Per Chr- --Block-- --Seeks--
    Machine        Size K/sec %CP K/sec %CP K/sec %CP K/sec %CP K/sec %CP  /sec %CP

                        ------Sequential Create------ --------Random Create--------
                        -Create-- --Read--- -Delete-- -Create-- --Read--- -Delete--
                  files  /sec %CP  /sec %CP  /sec %CP  /sec %CP  /sec %CP  /sec %CP
                     16 22995  99 +++++ +++ 24641 100 21661  97 +++++ +++ 21109  97
    jane.home.rugmonster.org,2G,36554,77,61335,18,28910,11,40009,81,72370,20,216.0,0,16,22995,99,+++++,+++,24641,100,21661,97,+++++,+++,21109,97
    Hardware setup:
    AMD Sempron 3200+ (AM2 Version)
    1GiB DDR2-800
    Silicon Image 3124 SATA Controller
    1x Seagate ST3320620AS 320GB SATA II HD
    3x Western Digital Caviar SE16 WD3200AAKS 320GB SATA II HD

    RAID Information:
    mdadm RAID Level 5
    4 drives, no hot spare
    Total Space: ~892 GiB

    Now I'm curious what others might get. I haven't had a chance to get my main system back up and running, not to mention it's got a degraded hardware RAID5 at the moment.

    Install bonnie++ and run bonnie++ in a console. Post your numbers along with a little about your drive setup. If enough people post their stuff, we can get an idea of where we stand compared to others in the disk performance arena.

    Thanks!
