    What version of DSS you using?

    Is hardware RAID an option ?

    or run BST5 (NTFS formatted) http://www.nu2.nu/download.php?sFile=bst514.zip
    Sequential 1MB for reads and writes
    Sequential 4MB for reads and writes
    All the best,

    Hi Gr-R, There is no hardware RAID, we're using the software RAID,and the DSS version is 4622.

    Update to 5087.
    Some updates to SCST that may help you.

    For DSS 5087, Is there any other change except the SCST updated to 2.0.0.1? I'm afraid that will not help, because the SCST 2.0.0.1 changed as follows:
    - Fixed critical issue with wrong INQUIRY page 0x80 (r3197)
    - Possible crashes due to incorrect execution context estimations fixed
    - Responsiveness under heavy load improved

    But i will try it, thanks!

    there is more than just the SCST update in the latest version.
    go ahead and update, and see if it helps.

    careful to read the release notes about VFD's and vmware for the update.

    Hi Gr-R, please see the iozone test output for the same configuration for iscsi volume with windows client. It seems that the performance is no improve, thanks!
