Introduction
3ware’s
advanced switched RAID architecture - StorSwitch™
unleashes the power of Serial ATA (SATA), delivering
the highest hardware RAID performance in its class.
The Escalade 9500S hardware RAID controllers deliver
in excess of 400 Mbytes per second (MB/sec) sustained
RAID 5 reads and over 100 MB/sec RAID 5 sequential
writes with less than 3% CPU utilization (Tested
using Intel’s Iometer(R) benchmark program
on a dual processor Intel(R) Xeon (2.4GHz) system
with PhoenixBIOS(R), 512MBytes system RAM, Microsoft(R)
Windows(R) 2000 Advanced Server, the Escalade 9500S-8
66MHz SATA RAID controller and Maxtor(R) 7Y250MQ,
250GB, 7200 RPM drives).
