Open-E DSS Benchmark with PIC

[thx0701]

Server
DELL 860 with 6/i
RAID0 WD GP 750G X2
Open - DSS Version: 5.0up60.7101.3511 32bit
FC HBA:Qlogic QLA2344 2Gbps PCI-X in target mode



Client
FC initiator client
IBM X3200 Q6600 with 8GB DRAM (without any storage)
Win2003
FC HBA :EMULEX 1050EX 1 Port 2Gbps PCI-E 4x



The speed is not bad. (Only ２　SATA Green Power HDD raid 0 )
I also have Dell MD1000 (DAS) and HP DL 180 G5 Server .
Ｗill do more test and try other soultion later (comstar and openfiler)
Although open-e dss costs more　money,it is still very good soultion.

Thanks for the tests!!! I want you to check out a user called "Robotbeat". He has other tests running w/ FC and iSCSI - see the link below. I have asked him to check your postings as well.

Thanks for the update thx0701!

Was the iSCSI LUN set to Write Back?
